Homes of Sanctuary

Our story

Homescreated fortogetherness.

Three distinct yet harmonious sanctuaries nestled in the timeless landscape of Nandi Hills.

Our philosophy

The architecturenever shouts.It breathes.

Eka is a 19-acre residential gated development 60 km from central Bangalore and 40 km from the international airport, with stunning views of the hills encircling it and the evergreen Channagiri hill — part of the Nandi Hills range — skirting its edge.

Designed by Sanctuary Architects, the project uses natural materials like stone and brick, all procured within a 10 km radius of the site. Rainwater harvesting systems capture what falls, and recharge pits let the rain replenish the land beneath it.

Our purpose

The luxury oftogetherness,with the graceof privacy.

Designed with multigenerational families in mind, the villas accommodate up to 36 guests in total comfort. Each home is autonomous, offering complete privacy, yet the architecture allows seamless flow between the three — private pathways, common courtyards, and open decks weaving them together like branches of the same tree.

  • Rooted

    Stone and brick procured within a 10 km radius of the site, and rainwater harvesting that puts water back into the land.

  • Connected

    Spaces designed to bring people together, across generations and across moments.

  • Tranquil

    Privacy, quiet, and the calm of nature — always within reach, never more than a door away.
