From constraints to a complete community.

Completed masterplanned community in Eastern Bihar.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
  • Site constraints often inspire the most innovative masterplan solutions.
  • Integrating natural hydrology prevents long-term waterlogging issues.
  • Phased development allows communities to organically mature.

The site challenge

Irregular plot boundaries, high seasonal rainfall, and restrictive access presented significant obstacles during initial site appraisal.

Hydrology and road hierarchy

By aligning internal avenue boulevards with natural contours, we created a self-draining gravity drainage system accompanied by bioswales and landscaped retention ponds.

A vibrant neighbourhood

Today, the development is home to over 40 families, featuring shaded walking tracks, children's play parks, and thriving green buffers.
