Sustainable success for Andy Fisher Workshop's 50 hectare plan
Bangalore’s latest urban expansion, designed by Andy Fisher workshop, was launched recently as a blueprint for future sustainable developments by Patel Realty. The 50 hectare development has been formulated to encompass environmental strategies, business incubators, commercial facilities, social, recreational and lifestyle needs. Offering a broad range of residential developments, catering to residents from a diverse cross-section of the market, Patel Realty hope to provide a new opportunity for locals to live, work and grow.
The growth of the development will be closely controlled through master guidelines which have been adopted to ensure that a flexible mix of buildings will create a vibrant and diverse blend of community and architecture.
The masterplan is structured around a central spine connecting three major precincts, separated by a lake and landscaped parkland. With water being a scarce commodity in Bangalore, the lake forms an integral aspect of the waste re-cycling and harvesting strategy for the development. If successful, NeoTown Bangalore will be used by Patel Realty to further develop it's current formula and apply it to future urban developments in India and overseas.
