You’ll be proud to call it your own


Selective membership to the Woodrose Club is now open. Its structure complete, the Woodrose Club was on public display for the first time on 28 and 29 February during the Brigade Bonanza.

An exhibition arranged in the Members’ Lounge allowed visitors to visualise the full potential of the Woodrose Club. Signage identified both the layout of the Club and the facilities it would offer. These facilities will be operational in three phases: the sports facilities in the second quarter of this year; the health club and gym in the third quarter; and the rest of the facilities, including rooms, restaurant and banquet hall, in the last quarter.

The Club is located in an idyllic setting—on a 2.5 acre plot within the serene, green Brigade Millennium campus, with the three-acre Millennium Park right next door.

An award-winning design is becoming more of a reality with each passing day.

An invitation to Architects for
designing a world-class Hill Resort
at an outstanding location 4 hrs from Bangalore

ARCHITECTS from around the world are being invited to submit proposals to design Brigade Group's maiden resort venture in the Western Ghats.

We aspire to make the resort among the best in the world. We are therefore looking for an outstanding and innovative design for the resort.

The resort will have 100-150 rooms/ cottages, conference facilities, swimming pool and other sports and health facilities. Construction of the cottages will take place progressively. Our primary objective in inviting proposals from architects is to obtain a fresh, creative and outstanding architectural design for the proposed resort.

Globalisation and architecture

“Globalisation effectively means that you are making the entire world into one small city. It means that Bangalore and New York are just different districts. A man travelling between these cities experiences the same comfort level as far as appearance, systems, practices and technologies are concerned”, explains architect Hafeez Contractor.

Globalisation has had an impact on architecture too. “This phenomenon has demanded an architectural and urban setting in response to the new-found business, technologies, and new social and political orders”, he says.

The trend is also seen in housing developments. “Global building is about creating buildings according to international standards. Today when we design, we cater to the highest international standards. Lighting and ventilation, fire prevention and car parking norms are of international standards. We also incorporate finishes, garbage disposal systems, fire escape services, roads, amenities and signage of global standards. All these are new innovations in building design.

“Vernacular architecture which uses local materials is dead. Using local materials has become more expensive.

“Architecture at any point in time responds to technological, political and social issues of that time. At this point in time the influences and advancements due to globalisation need great sensitivity and aptitude on the part of architects and developers to establish appropriate architecture.”
