Umaid Heritage

This is a 120 acre residential  scheme at the foot-hill of the world famous Umaid Bhavan Palace.

Echoing the palace, all the buildings are built in local Jodhpur stone. The landscape design too relies heavily on this stone for the hard surfaces as well as garden furniture such as pavilions , pergolas, seats etc. 

In order to avail of the maximum usable space, the level differences were achieved with help of stone retaining walls. However while selecting the plant material ,l care was taken that the plant heights helped to visually subdue the level differences. Privacy of the bungalows abutting on the central green was given equal importance and while selecting the species care was taken to ensure that the garden user was unable to look into the residences while the view from the bungalow was intact.

In order to ensure the sustainability of the greenery, due attention was given to the selection of plants which are able to withstand the extreme Jodhpur climate.
