Max Group’s residences of seniors, branded Antara, are perhaps India’s most successful senior living communes in the luxury band. After their well-received Dehradun property, the Group rolled out the second one in Noida in an urban vertical format comprising apartments carefully tailored for safe and hassle-free living for seniors. BMA was engaged for the interior design of the show-apartment as well as the common amenities such as the Antara Club which is the locus of the development, and, indeed, the daily routines of the community’s occupants.

To ensure an active and engaged life, the facility is well-designed with several avenues for socialising through shared meals and other activities. The entrance lobby, with its TV lounge and seating islands sets the tone for the narrative. An all-day dining and other restaurants, a permanent buffet set-up, a card room, meeting rooms and a mini theatre occupy the ground floor, while a gym, an indoor pool and a spa take up the first floor of this nucleus of activity. The visual expression is mellow, brimming with understated grace. The upscale compositions are sketched in clean, straight lines and enlivened with materials and design touches — such anti-skid flooring, rounded edges, comfortable lighting, wheelchair-friendly spaces, quick and convenient access to aid — keep the demographic of the users firmly in mind. The result is a development that aims to uplift the quality of life through thoughtful design, ensuring that, for its occupants, this chapter of life is as exciting as their pervious one.
