Lodha World One Worli, Mumbai

Description

Rising majestically above the City and the Arabian Sea 117 Storeys high, World Towers stands as the tallest residential tower in the world. Never before has and perhaps never again will, a structure of such monumental significance emerge, that too in the very heart of Mumbai – India’s gateway to the world

But World One‘s iconic status cannot only be attributed to the sheer scale of its structure. It is a symbol of our times, a reflection of India’s stature on the global stage and a tribute to the collective vision of the greatest talent. In an unprecedented move, legends from across the globe- the finest names in design, architecture and lifestyle services, have come together to lend their expertise to the creation of this icon

And more importantly, to create the holistic experience that it provides – of the best that the world has to offer

“Whether it’s New York, Paris, Hong Kong or Mumbai, each global city is defined by an iconic landmark, one that transcends time and trend to embody that which is special and unique about its place and purpose; in so doing, it becomes inextricably linked to one’s image and memory of the city”

Designing a structure this historic and unique would have been daunting for anyone, barring a firm with credentials that are perhaps as extensive as its lists of landmarks. Not many need to be acquainted with the legendary Pei Cobb Freed & Partners, the creators of architectural marvels like the Pyramid at the Grand Louvre, Paris, the John Hancock Towerin Boston, and the Bank of China Tower in Hong Kong

The World Towers is yet another masterpiece to join the ranks of these remarkable structures. It is a destination unto itself, which has set the benchmark for urban planning in the country

Needless to say, with World One, Pei Cobb Freed & Partners have surpassed themselves yet again.

Whether it’s the monumental height of the edifice, the unique cloverleaf configuration that provides spectacular and unobstructed views from each residence, or the sheer luxury with which it is imbued, every detail seamlessly comes together, making it unquestionably the city’s most coveted address

Behold a breathtaking sunset or stargaze on a clear night over a selection of fine hors d’oeuvres and aperitifs at the observatory lounge, 1000, which, as the name suggests, is dramatically perched 1000 ft. above the city. With an alfresco deck beautifully landscaped by Ken Smith and a plush lounge, 1000 is the perfect viewing gallery from where you can see up to 60 km. into the distance
