Nikhil Deshpande
Founder of Getaway Collective. Sets the standard every estate is designed, built and governed to, and signs the decisions that make it binding.
- The enterprise and brand constitutions
- Design and capital decisions at each estate, each written down and dated, such as the steel structure at Seaside Confluence
- The separation between the platform, the operating partner and each vehicle
Karthik Shanbhogue
Architecture for the collection: the design of each estate and the drawings it is built from.
- Estate plans and building design
- Design through to construction sets
- Materials, light and the way each building meets its land
Manjunath & Co.
Structural design for the estates: frames, foundations and the ground each building stands on.
- The steel frame on driven piles at Seaside Confluence, chosen to leave the coastal ground barely touched
- The pier fields that carry the Creek clusters above the forest floor
- Load paths, spans and the structural checks on every drawing set
Addya
Mechanical, electrical and plumbing design: water, power, drainage and air, planned from first principles for each estate's climate.
- Water and power, including off-grid where the estate needs it
- Drainage for monsoon sites that take thousands of millimetres of rain a year
- Ventilation and plant that run quietly, so silence is designed, not hoped for
Building information modellers
One coordinated model per estate, in which architecture, structure and services are checked against each other before anything is built.
- A single shared model for each estate
- Clash detection between structure, services and architecture
- Quantities that feed the bill of quantities, so cost follows the drawing
