Amanora Future Towers – Shaping the architectural panorama of Pune

Path breaking creations, right from scriptures to literary pieces to buildings, films, even discoveries and inventions have been possible as a result of an idea. Amanora Future Towers in Amanora Park Town are an excellent example of how an idea can lead to the creation of something totally magnificent and which has never been seen before.

The Future Towers, the first of its kind Vertical City in India is located in Hadapsar, Pune. It is slated to have 3 phases with approximately 3,500 apartments or 400,000 sqm of housing and amenities. In this mega project, 1068 apartments will be housed and the apartments will range from 42 sqm to 530 sqm. The futuristic development will comprise six different styles of apartments with studios, apartments with four rooms.



Now what makes Future Towers so desirable and one of its kind? Without batting an eye lid you can say that it is the ultramodern architecture and design concept which sets the Future Towers apart from other residential projects. Talented MVRDV architects from Rotterdam, Netherlands took the baton of design from Citi Group and construction of the first phase is well underway. The design has its base in the vertical city model. The design and development guidelines like fine tuned aesthetics ease in construction, use of green and eco friendly practices and optimization and conservation of resources have been followed to the hilt. For instance, a rain water harvesting system is in place at Future Towers.

After a lot of churning of thoughts by architects under the leadership of principal architect, Jacob Van Rijs, the iconic design was zeroed in on. The design concept of Amanora Future Towers is based on a hexagonal grid. The 120-degree angle ensures optimum inflow of natural light, at the same time enabling a picturesque view. Interestingly It is positioned on the site in manner that if it is cut along the boundary of the site, it leads to 3 distinct building fragments. Another unique aspect of the Future Towers is the solar tree plantation, where in each of the branches of the trees has a solar lamp, which includes solar cells, electronic systems and rechargeable batteries.

The design integrates quintessential Indian architecture as well as the western style of architecture. The Indian concept of ‘aangan’ or courtyard is implemented in the design with a western ‘tadka’. The development resembles hill side, creating a picture of canyons, caves and valleys.

This unbeatable design would not have been possible without Jacob Van Rijs, from MVRDV and his fabulous team of architects. The inspiration ofcourse has been an illustrious list of buildings, right from Burj Khalifa in Dubai to Mirador building in Madrid.

Kudos to MVRDV and City Group for coming with such a brilliant idea!
