Design Accord has extended the original vision conceived by Woods Bagot to provide a complete Biophilic setting for this unique IT Park campus being developed in Kolkata. All the towers look into the central plaza spine that will be the lifeline of the campus with a pedestrian movement zone connecting North to South blocks dotted with large trees and bespoke canopies.
This spine will be full of vibrance and throbbing with energy and activity. The central spine organically weaves out to get lost on the side open spaces into verdant green lawns or micro forests which themselves are microecology pockets. The idea being to promote sustainable landscape where stormwater flows out towards the forest Grove and gets collected as wetland swamps. Water further gets rinsed through bioswales and root zone plantation.
