APPA Housing

The residential APPA Development is located in India's Andhra Pradesh capital city of Hyderabad. The planning concept is inspired by the spectacular site, which is surrounded by natural rock formations and overlooks a lake to the south. In order to maintain a car-free pedestrian friendly green environment, the towers are placed within a vast landscaped area. A central Focal Point was designed in the heart of the project, defining the geometric and programmatic center of the MasterPlan, with its various commercial and community amenities, which in turn benefit from the restful green atmosphere of this landscaped space. Vaastu, a traditional Indian system of architecture, also plays a key role in the building's placement, allowing for a majority of apartments with unobstructed views of lake and towards the east and south.
