The landscaping provides orchestrated views of different vistas around the site, and its intricacy creates surprise elements along the way. The main courtyards are connected through spaces, forming a creative visual and experiential treat. Throughout the building scheme you can see instances where local architecture has been redefined by using contemporary design parameters, thus seamlessly relating the project to its surroundings. The interior spaces are designed for flexibility to provide large exhibition spaces without making any structural changes.

With 6,00,000sqft of retail and services space, Ishanya is a single sourcing point for over 52 categories of products and services, materials and knowledge, drawn from across the best in India and across the globe. It offers over 100 outlets and over 5,000 brands and services, besides a research centre, mock-up/simulation centres and a creativity centre. There is something for everyone, as the range offers choices right from the ultra-designer league to the cost-competitive.

Among the vast range of designs, materials, construction technologies, finishes, popular lifestyle and décor choices on offer today, it is a challenge for an individual to get a sense of what can be done within a given space. No doubt Ishanya offers a multitude of choices; but it is also about making choices, as it offers the required support through its services to make that one choice – resolving dilemmas, helping find solutions, and making dreams come true.

Ishanya is designed as a venue for the latest in world-class design inspiration, ideas, expertise and solutions. A place to holistically plan, design and build an office, commercial outlet, residence or any other architectural marvel. Whether you are looking for a product or service, you will find it here. So the speciality mall is an integral part of the lifestyle of consumers as well as the business strategy of architects, interior designers, builders and service contractors.

Here is a destination for all those who like good design – be it the aesthete, the connoisseur, the amateur, or simply someone who would like to be surrounded by beautiful spaces.

Tempered by Steel
The use of steel for the buildings, coupled with concrete and glass, has been a major factor in saving construction time. Prefabricated steel sections were brought in from the workshop just before they needed to be installed – thus reducing site storage space. Recycled steel was also considered for its value as a sustainable construction material.

Climate Control
The concept of energy storage is incorporated for the purpose of air-conditioning applications. Intelligent building systems are implemented for functional safety as well as energy conservation and efficiency through rainwater harvesting and waste management. Besides, the design centre is equipped with a sophisticated fire detection system, fire-fighting systems/sprinklers, CCTV and access control. The roofing is specially insulated, keeping in mind the energy consumption for air-conditioning. Skylights on the roof take in the North light and provide natural lighting.
