In the dynamic landscape of Bangalore’s commercial real estate, tenants are no longer satisfied with basic office spaces. Today’s workforce seeks environments that foster productivity, collaboration, and well-being. This shift has made shared amenities a critical consideration when selecting office spaces. From startups to established enterprises, businesses now recognize that the right amenities can...

As Bengaluru’s workforce becomes increasingly hybrid, the “15-minute neighbourhood” — where groceries, childcare, gyms, and parks are accessible within a short walk or ride — is becoming a defining metric for where knowledge workers want to live and work. Data from OpenStreetMap (OSM), BBMP’s park GIS, and walkability studies indicate that Indiranagar, Koramangala, Jayanagar, Malleshwaram, and...
