Good Earth Malhar Mosaic

Mosaic is a blend of the earlier two communities at Malhar, the idea of being car-free and a loop road which inter-connects all the clusters of the group.

Two entry roads on either side of a large, open park lead in to Mosaic, and end where the clusters begin, at the common car parks. This keeps the inner, looping cluster streets free of vehicular movements. From here homes are but a few footsteps away. The natural elevation of the layout adds drama to the terrain with clusters located at varying levels.

The layout for homes have been evolved and refined through insights gained from our previous communities and our hands-on engagement with its people. Homes in Mosaic reflect this through the use of subtle detailing and architectural departures to reflect individuality as well as build a sense of belonging to the neighborhood. The spaces are rich in texture, varied in detail and characterised by balconies, verandahs, courtyards and terraces.

Homes total 84, with clusters of 13 to 16 set around small parks. 5 such clusters are set in a mosaic, interconnected through a pedestrian walkway that loops around the entire community, making for shared as well as private spaces. A 6th cluster hugs a large park converging the community as its primary space for social interaction and activities. A basement car park is located under this large space. The green spaces will have indigenous & medicinal plants and trees.The homes are designed to be spacious and functional, ensure optimum light, natural ventilation and privacy. Built around nature, each house will have an internal or external courtyard or an open plan looking out to a large rear or a front garden.
