Location : Huttanahalli, Jala Hobli, Bangalore, India
Development Area: 40.9 Acres
Design Style: Contemporary
Adarsh Palm Acres is located near Devanahalli, Northern part of Bangalore, approximately twenty kilometres from the downtown area and within easy access to Kempegowda International Airport.
The expansive villa community is designed around a lush multi-programmed central park. Serving as the lungs of the development, this park has an impressive green space that encourages a relaxing and healthy atmosphere for residents. Key features of the Central Park include a plaza, meandering walkways connecting seating areas and open lawns for kite flying and cricket. Elsewhere along the walkways, residents can enjoy more secluded, organic informal spaces, enjoying a picnic while alongside the water features and a sustainable bio pond. Planting accents are achieved with Oil Palms along the promenades as well as with the use of other palm species.
The landscape design philosophy was to create a contemporary living environment that maximised the environmental & spatial potential. Of key importance are the spatial arrangement and planting aspects of the design.
The planting species were chosen from a palate of entirely native species local to the area, enhancing natural environment and attracting bids to the park. This objective along with bio- filtration ponds has created a more sustainable natural environment with lower long term maintenance.
