Life in an orchard

Asem Bhat

Why not live amidst 250 indigenous species of plants and rows of sapota and coconut trees, with a gentle breeze always blowing? Not to forget RWH, waste water treatment and all modern amenities? Drive down Mysore Road to Kengeri and enter the Good Earth Orchard and homes built by Good Earth.

Everything from a typical Indian village to a modern city villa is at your feet here. The community has 60 2/3 BHK houses, in groups of 13 to 18, with landscaping features and space for a garden.

“The motive is to build sustainable communities in typical Indian style with modern comforts and an eco-sustainable future,” says architect Jeeth.

Exposed brick and stone exteriors, stone clay and wood for the interiors, timber polished with cashewnut shell liquid and linseed oil for a long life and a rustic look… the list goes on.

Rain water is harvested and the ground water is recharged through well-spread-out percolation channels.
