Acclaimed designer Gauri Khan has, for the first time, collaborated with a South India based developer URBANRISE to co-create Whispers of Sky. The launch marks February 27, 2026 as the official date for the project's introduction to the Chennai market.

Scale and Unit Mix

Spread over approximately 6.09 acres, the development will feature 623 premium residences, across high-rise towers in Phase 1, offering spacious 3 BHKs and an exclusive 4 BHK tower.

Design and Spatial Strategy

The residences are designed with meticulous spatial planning, including grand double height lobbies, 10.2-foot floor-to-ceiling heights, and apartments that don't share common walls with neighbours apartments to enhance privacy. Buyers can expect homes that emphasize natural light, ventilation and fluid movement between living spaces.

Amenities and Community Features

Planned amenities include a dedicated first-of-its-kind pickleball academy with an integrated cafe, luxury clubhouse, swimming pool, modern gymnasium, yoga and meditation zones, children's play areas, landscaped jogging tracks and optimized wells.
