Global architecture firm Gensler designed the project drawing inspiration from the layered ecology of the Sundarban mangroves to inform vertical articulation and a facade responsive to light and climate. Bobby Mukherrji Architects designed common areas and the club, introducing a curated material palette and experiential detailing. An elevated wellness terrace with a panoramic pool and landscaped leisure zones forms a central amenity.

The adjoining THE Park Hotel is planned as a luxury hospitality landmark offering banquet and event facilities, signature dining, nightlife venues and dedicated wellness amenities, and will include an air taxi landing facility to enhance connectivity. Together, the hotel and residences are expected to reinforce EM Bypass as a key axis in Kolkata's urban expansion and to create operational synergies between hospitality services and residential living.

The chairperson of Apeejay Surrendra Park Hotels described the initiative as an extension of the brand's focus on design and culture into a larger urban canvas and said the residences are intended to bring hospitality into everyday living, while the chairman of Ambuja Neotia characterised the scheme as a limited address guided by proportion, privacy and contextual sensibility. Apeejay Surrendra Park Hotels Limited, established in 1967, operates a portfolio of over 39 hotels across several brands and maintains a retail food and beverage presence through Flurys with over 100 outlets. Ambuja Neotia is presented as a conglomerate with interests in real estate, hospitality, healthcare and education and a philosophy of improving urban living. The partners filed the announcement with the stock exchanges as a regulatory disclosure.
