Located in the agricultural outskirts of Delhi, Gurgaon is transforming into a metropolis. With developments taking over productive farmland, the project seeks to encourage landscape replenishment through gardening in high-rise residential living. Existing farm grids were mapped as planning formulations onto the site and extruded based on the programmatic brief requirements to become ‘vertical residential farmlands’. Further integrating the landscape, an abstracted graphic representation of the rhythm of modern urban life in India was combined with that of the nearby Aravalli Mountain Range. The resulting profile breaks the monotony of regular high-rises and undulates organically with a rigour resonant of its vibrant, evolving context.
