Warje Hill & Vandevi Temple Landscaping

Project Details:

• Project Name: Landscape Development for Warje Hill & Vandevi Temple

• Location: Warje Hill, Pune

• Total Site Area: 13.38 acre

• Total Site Development: 1.27 acre

• Proposal Project: Unbuilt (2022)

Perched atop Warje Hill in Pune, the Life and Landscape of Urban Hill project envisions a thoughtful revival of the 13.38-acre site, with 1.27 acres dedicated to development. Proposed in 2022, this unbuilt initiative aims to restore the ecosystem disrupted by quarrying, weaving sustainable design with an ecological focus. Highlighting the Vandevi Temple, it seeks to harmonize nature and culture for future generations.

Concept

The project aspires to reconnect people with cultural spaces while enhancing Warje Hill’s natural beauty. With objectives like creating scenic pause points, segregating dense greenery from open pathways, and offering stunning hilltop views, it promises a balanced sanctuary. By buffering settlements from the hill, this proposal blends conservation and community, crafting an inviting, visually captivating landscape.
