HELIX: A new typology in vertical habitats that fosters enhanced engagement with nature’s elements. Helix has a most naturally appropriate geometry. With an aim to create a new model for vertical inhabitation that affords a greater and enhanced connectivity with all the elements: plants, earth, water and air and cosmic forces like the Sun. The Helix - Ascent of Holistic Habitats. The design solution is an elegant tall cylindrical building with wrap around balconies that offer 360-degree views and peripheral planters that hold 1000 cubic feet of soil at each level and create substantial biomass to generate oxygen for its inhabitants. These garden apartments also have two large cantilevered decks projecting beyond the 13 feet balcony line and are shifted 12 degrees clockwise on each subsequent floor creating a helical stairs effect all around the tower. Helical in form and essence, this new typology in vertical living, has 45 floors offers a sweeping 360° view of the surroundings; outdoor living for all seasons; a set of terraces with outdoor gym, Jacuzzi, lounge; a lounge at the top 3 levels with a gym, a library, an observatory that shall offer breath-taking views of the night sky; and a 5 level club at the lower levels with state of art lifestyle amenities. The helical theme is also continued in the landscape where a four-floor high cascade pool is arranged in a spiral geometry. The sight and sound of cascading pool becomes the defining entry experience of this unique new typology of residential habitats.
