Khoday Center

Bangalore, India

Building on local traditions of inner, private courtyards, vibrant outdoor places and soothing gardens, Khoday Center will offer a mix of environments and uses, which will not only differentiate it from others in the hi-tech zone but truly make it a world-class place to live, work and play. Hotels, apartments, significant new office space and retail uses are woven together by a system of public spaces that include a grand public garden, new Park Roads, inner courtyards and arcades. The development team’s concerns for sustainability drives the design response, from a strategic mix of uses and density that promote walkability, to the orientation of buildings with respect to the climate and the use of high life-cycle, locally available materials.
