Hospitality

The most stunning and drop-dead gorgeous site in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand. With minimum intervention and maximum effect, LSDA designed this landscape for a resort on the banks of the Ganges. The stones that came out of the rocky site itself lend a powerful character to the entire landscape design. With almost no retaining walls, the entire site, graded to form terraces, just blends seamlessly with the mountains and the river. And what can really be said about that Infinity Pool. A picture speaks a thousand words!!

Radisson, Jodhpur

This 150-room hotel was originally a small traditional Jodhpur haveli, sitting on a 1.25-acre plot. The entire new structure had been created using local Jodhpur stone and is reminiscent of the traditional architecture of the place. The landscape too was conceptualized as a play of traditional designs, motifs, colours, and materials which shall make this otherwise new building look as if it belongs to the past. Traditional art elements & motifs like the lotus and peacock became an inspiration in doing the flooring for the terrace restaurants using broken tile mosaics, which is a traditional Rajasthani art form. And when one is designing in the ‘Blue City’ the color blue had to play a predominant role throughout the landscape scheme !!

Taj Corbett, Ramnagar

Bestowed with more than 170 mango trees and abundant greenery in and around the site, the landscape intent was to plant a jungle in this mighty jungle called the Corbett National Park. The built structures have also been rendered a natural look to the maximum extent possible using thatch roofs, locally available stone, and wood being used in its most natural forms like cut logs and planks. So, hideaway in this jungle and enjoy the fruits of our labour !!

The Glass House, Mussoorie

The Glass House at The Sylverton, Mussoorie was designed as a casual Diner & Lounge, where guests are surrounded by greenery and natural light while having gourmet food and drinks during their stay at the hotel. A minimalist white and green colour palette runs through the entire Glass House that focuses more on the overall experience of the space. The Glass House is further sbutted with an outdoor Grill & Cafe space comprising of a metal structure covered with a transparent canopy. The structure does not feel like an imposition on the spectacular view yet serves all the functional requirements of an outdoor grill.
