At Godrej Verano, roughly 81% of the 11.36-acre site is open — more than 8 acres. That makes landscape the largest single component of the project, and it is being planned by PL Design, Bangkok.
Why this appointment is the most telling one
Most Gurugram projects treat landscape as a finishing item — lawns and planting applied after the buildings are set. Bringing in a Bangkok resort landscape practice at design stage inverts that: the ground plane becomes the brief, and buildings are placed to serve it.
That is consistent with the numbers. A 19% building footprint is not achievable as an afterthought; it is a decision made early, at a real cost in saleable area. See the master plan.
What 8 acres of designed landscape can hold
At this scale, landscape stops being decoration and becomes usable geography:
- A jogging track threaded through planting, not traced around a boundary wall
- Multiple distinct zones — active, quiet, children's, social — rather than one central lawn
- Water as a distributed element, which is the core of the bay living concept
- Mature tree canopy, which is what actually makes outdoor space usable in a Gurugram May
- Walking distance between the three TriBay clubhouses through designed space
The Southeast Asian resort influence
PL Design's body of work sits in the resort and hospitality landscape tradition — layered planting, shaded circulation, water used for microclimate as much as appearance, and outdoor rooms rather than open lawns.
Applied to Gurugram, the microclimate point is the practical one. Shade structure, tree density and water placement determine whether 8 acres are used nine months a year or three.
What to ask for and check
Request the landscape master plan as a separate drawing from the site plan. The site plan tells you where the buildings are. The landscape plan tells you whether the space between them has been designed or simply left over.
Then check:
- Tree species and planting size at handover. Saplings take a decade; semi-mature planting works from year one.
- Shade coverage on the jogging track and play areas.
- Water feature maintenance responsibility and its running cost in the IFMS.
- Delivery timing. Is landscape handed over with the first tower, or at project completion?
That last question matters more than any other. Landscape delivered two years after residents move in is a common Gurugram experience — get the milestone in writing alongside the possession timeline.
Landscape and resale value
Open space is the hardest thing for a competing project to replicate later. A neighbouring developer can match your specification, your club size and your brand — it cannot manufacture 8 acres on a constrained parcel. Over a holding period, that scarcity is what supports pricing. See capital appreciation on this corridor.
