Man-made structures towering over us in glass and steel are a testament to our architectural and engineering skills. And yet, we as human beings are most relaxed in the lap of nature, we love a walk in the woods, getting our feet wet on the beach, a sand bash or just watch the beautiful sun at the horizon. The Concept revolves on creating a Balance between the Hard & Soft The Hard surfaces are gently balanced with softer elements to invoke natural elements and colours. Each element introduced has a significance, the green represents growth, the birds, freedom of flight and the invitation come and enjoy these transitional areas in the course of day is the story of Balance.
