Commercial & Hospitality Landscaping
High-traffic commercial landscapes demand durability without sacrificing aesthetic charm, a balance we perfected during our work on the historic Taj Savoy grounds.
We had the privilege of redesigning the landscape for the historic Taj Savoy hotel in Ooty. This brick pathway leads through a classic English-style garden with a central fountain.
We added playful and elegant features like this life-sized chessboard to enhance the guest experience on the hotel grounds.
The design included improving accessibility with new stone steps and railings, surrounded by colorful, hardy plants suitable for the climate.

We used classic garden design elements like manicured boxwood hedges and formal topiary to complement the hotel's colonial architecture.

About this collection
For commercial properties, it is not just about visual appeal, but about managing high footfall and specific maintenance cycles. We focus on integrating durable materials like brick pathways and resilient, hardy plant selections that survive Ooty’s climate while keeping the heritage aesthetic intact.
When designing for hotels and commercial campuses, the challenge is balancing heavy daily foot traffic with a pristine, welcoming look. We do not just install softscapes; we plan the entire civil foundation, including water drainage, site grading, and durable pathways that do not crack under pressure.
For the Taj Savoy in Ooty, our approach was to honor the colonial architecture while upgrading the infrastructure. We added accessible stone steps and railings, installed robust brick pathways, and introduced hardy plant varieties that handle both cold weather and high guest volume.
Our workflow for these projects follows a strict cycle:
- Site Assessment: We analyze soil health, slope, and traffic flow patterns.
- Hardscape Integration: We build functional structures such as retaining walls, stone walkways, and seating areas using materials like high-grade granite and kiln-fired bricks.
- Sustainable Planting: We select perennials and shrubs that require minimal replacement, ensuring the grounds stay vibrant year-round without constant replanting.
Our A to Z service model means you have one point of contact for the entire process, from the first survey to the final lighting install. Whether you are managing a corporate office, a resort, or a public space, we build landscapes meant to last.
