LUXURY JUST
GOT SMARTER
Did I turn the coffee maker off? Did I set the security alarm? Are the kids
doing their homework or watching television? With a smart home, you
could quiet all of these worries with a quick glance at your smartphone or a
gentle tap on your tablet. You could connect the devices and appliances in
your home so they can communicate with each other and with you. Any
device in your home that uses electricity can be put on your home network
and at your command. Whether you give that command by voice, remote
control, tablet or smartphone, the home responds, making life easier,
convenient and secure.
Every villa at the Embassy Boulevard is a smart home with a sophisticated
array of smart home systems that run on the Internet of Things. Welcome
to the smarter life at the Embassy Boulevard.

THE FUTURE OF NORTH BANGALORE
AEROTROPOLIS
Historically, airports have been the engine of growth across major
cities world-wide. Bengaluru is no exception. The setting up of the
International Airport at Devanahalli has fuelled the rapid
transformation of North Bangalore from a heritage town to a
global investment destination. A raft of infrastructure projects,
availability of vast land parcels at a comparatively lower cost,
Government initiatives to promote industry and seamless
connectivity have enhanced the dynamics of this region.
Infrastructureinvestments:Thekeytogrowth
The growth potential of Devanahalli has attracted global capital:
The upcoming 12,000 acre USD 2 billion IT Investment Region
(ITIR), the largest of its kind in India; an INR 100 cr Financial City; an
Aerospace Park; and a Science Park are just few projects in the
pipeline. Total infrastructure development in the area is estimated
to be in excess of USD 30 billion over the next two years.
As KIAL is set to become one of Asia’s busiest airports,
infrastructure development in the region has gained tremendous
momentum. "North Bangalore features prominently in the
Comprehensive Development Plan and the Greater Bangalore
Development Plan. There is a significant focus on infrastructure
initiatives in this location”, adds Sanjay Chugh, Head - Residential
Services (Chennai and Bengaluru), Jones Lang LaSalle India.
Social infrastructure is another factor that has worked for North
Bangalore, with numerous hospitals, educational institutions and
shopping malls having come up in recent years.
Connectivitydrivesdevelopment
Connectivity to and from the Central Business District (CBD) to the
airport and to other key locations in the south and east through
the ORR has spurred development in the region. Upcoming
projects such as the elevated expressway to the airport will ensure
seamless travel.
Dr. Samantak Das, Director, Research and Advisory Services, Knight
Frank India, outlines a few initiatives, "There are numerous
infrastructure projects being planned by the government such as a
High Speed Rail Link (HSRL), Metro line and the Peripheral Ring
Road (PRR). On completion, these projects will further enhance
connectivity to the city center with the airport. Additionally,
widening of the NH-7 up to the airport from the existing
six-lane to eight lanes will sustain higher traffic. Another major
infrastructure project underway is the elevated signal-free
expressway, connecting Hebbal flyover to the airport."

6. Impactonresidentialdevelopment
The focus on the peripheral locations in the north has led to
increased residential development. The Hebbal-Devanahalli
stretch has emerged as one of the fast-emerging residential hubs.
Hebbal, in specific, has gained much importance as a residential
destination and has, recently, come to be recognised as a high-end
residential market.
Satish B N of Knight Frank observes, “The presence of a large
operational tech park and business park has made the northern
markets preferred residential destinations, primarily for the
employees engaged in the IT/ITES sector."
The market for luxury housing in North Bangalore is witnessing an
upsurge, attracting both domestic buyers and Non-Resident
Indians (NRIs). This is attributed to the availability of land at
cheaper rates and proximity to the international airport.
As a result of the infrastructure initiatives that are in various stages
of construction and planning, capital values will continue to
appreciate.
North Bangalore:
A benchmark ‘Aerotropolis’ in the making
In the speed-driven and globally connected economy of the 21st
century, airports are fast becoming the main drivers of city’s
growth. ‘Aerotropolis’ is globally established model for an airport
centric development.
An Aerotropolis is a form of urban development with an airport city
at the centre and aviation-linked businesses agglomerating
around it. In line with global advances in airport development,
airports across India are being modernized and upgraded,
incorporating the characteristics of an Aerotropolis model.
The Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) has everything it
takes to be an Aerotropolis. KIA property is spread across
approximately 3,880 acres of land. About 2,000 acres are
developed as part of Phase I. Approximately 450 acres are available
for real estate development.
The area under the jurisdiction of the Bengaluru International
Airport Area Planning Authority (BIAAPA) covers 985 sq km. KIA
and the BIAAPA region score high on all the following parameters
that are key to the development as an Aerotropolis:
Location, connectivity and infrastructure
Favourable demographics
Regional economy
Operational capacity
Governance
Real estate
The location advantage, growing operational capacity, improving
infrastructure and availability of large land parcels for future
growth has led Vestian Global to conclude that North Bangalore
has the potential to be India’s first ‘Aerotropolis’ - A vision that
could launch the region into a high growth trajectory.

CLIMATE CONTROL
BY DESIGN
The villa design takes reference from the excellent climatic conditions,
good natural ventilation and qualities that can be found in the classic
Bangalore villa.
An inspired design by the renowned Andy Fisher Workshop, the
architectural language is rooted in the milieu. As Andy Fisher
articulates, ”We always try to design to respond to a place and its
culture and heritage but in a contemporary setting. This can be both
applied to the design and interiors. Any piece of work needs to have
some roots. ”
The ground floor areas are designed to be as open and flowing as
possible. The large areas of glazing allows the design to connect the
inside and out, offer good ventilation, and balance the form of the
villas. In order to achieve optimal ventilation and heat insulation,
passive cooling measures have been implemented, as featured below.
REDUCTION OF
EXTERNAL HEAT LOAD
Highly insulated roofs
Rock layered roof surface ensures heat insulation
Sun shading devices
Overhangs and louvers provide a veil of
privacy for residents while minimizing
solar gain and glare.

8. NATURAL VENTILATION
Villas are designed to breathe.
Free flow of air on all sides
allows for optimal cross ventilation
and ensures passive cooling.
CHANGE IS IN THE AIR
The design promotes air movement,
both horizontally and vertically.
The use of ceiling fans further promotes
fresh air movement.

Andy Fisher Workshop (AFW), have scoured the world for the finest
and most beautiful marbles for your villas at Embassy Boulevard.
They have braved rough seas and snow storms to visit the tiny Turkish
Island of Marmara. In this remote location is one of the oldest
quarries in the world. The island’s signature grey and white marble
comes only from this one source and stone has been cut from these
historic hillsides since the time of the ancient Greeks. AFW has
personally selected the finest stones available on the island to ensure
that your bathrooms are of the highest quality.
They have also roamed the quarries (and restaurants) of Italy to
ensure that the villas contain the finest selection of Italian marbles.
They have crisscrossed the country from North to South selecting
stone for floors from Verona, stone for bathrooms from the famous
quarries of Carrera and stone for the external walls from the
travertine quarries at Tivoli, on the doorstep of Rome. These are the
same quarries that the Roman Emperors used for the construction of
their finest buildings, including The Pantheon, The Colosseum and
The Palaces of The Palatine Hills. A truly royal pedigree.

14. ART AND SOUL FIND
SOPHISTICATION
Embassy Boulevard, in every sense, is sophisticated art brought to life. The evolved
design, the broad palette of refinements and masterful finishes form a portrait
deserving of a frame.
The advertising campaign for Embassy Boulevard drew inspiration from the theme to
create a first-of-its-kind concept: Hoardings featuring sophisticated villa images and
framed such that they appear as 'paintings in the sky'.
Positioned at high-profile locations across the city, the framed hoardings complimented
by print ads present a new frame of reference for innovation while drawing in
sophisticated audiences.

15. We were looking for an ideal abode in a serene locality with sufficient lung space for greenery and open areas,
away from the hustle bustle of the city life, where we could breathe fresh air; yet within the reaches of the
essentials like schools and hospitals of international standards, shopping malls and of course proximity to
airports and railway stations for our post-retirement dwelling. We looked at a few options; but those matching
the norms lacked when it came to the presentability of the ingress and to the gated complex from the arterial
road. Our search led us to the Embassy Boulevard in October last year, which offered all of what we were looking
for in this gated complex consisting of 170 villas in 52 acres of land located off Bellary Road / NH 7.
I must say that the show villa not only matched our pre-set norms; but also impressed us with its brilliant
architectural design and construction quality. This coupled with the proactive and friendly approach of Embassy's
personnel, Anand, our Account Manager prompted us to end our search at Embassy Boulevard. It is noteworthy
that the Team proactively responded to all our requests.
