Canal Rejuvenation

Bangalore's urban fabric gained something rare with this project — a canal transformed from a drainage corridor into a biophilic public space that genuinely works with water rather than against it. During heavy rains, natural systems intercept and slow floodwater, while a permeable canal base and downstream holding tank support percolation and recharge. Moisture-tolerant and native plant species were selected for their ability to thrive across wet and dry cycles, stabilising slopes and supporting local wildlife. The result is a living, resilient ecosystem woven into a corporate campus — one that manages water, builds biodiversity, and quietly reminds the city what its canals were always capable of.
