An avant-garde architect’s alcazar

IIPM PUBLICATION

Much like those shimmering rays of the sun that not only illuminate Earth, but also bestow bountiful energy for life to grow and prosper, the Hiranandani Group for over two decades has pioneered the art of caricaturing the dream home for millions. They have built up huge green townships that are a testimony to the Group’s continuous endeavour to engage in environmentally friendly practices. With the patience of a truck driver stuck on a mile-long jam on GT Road, we hiccupped through the busy Link Road, witnessing skylines, which were to say the least conspicuous by the vibrant greenery that surrounded them & by the architectural grandeur that has become the Group’s trademark.

Olympia, Central Avenue at the Hiranandani Business Park – the sacred space of the master builder Surendra Hiranandani, Managing Director and Co-Founder of Hiranandani Group of Companies provided the stage for our interaction, where we were warmly greeted by the leading architect himself. We started with a friendly chat, discussing the company’s journey during the last 27 years. Surendra gets candid with us: “The real growth started only after the year 1991 when the reforms began and Indian economy opened up. But it was only after 2003 that we grew exponentially. Needless to say that after over 25 years in this business, I have seen more years of recession than boom.”
