About Us

A different starting point for a residential project

Most master plans start with a tower footprint. Ours started with a pool, a courtyard tree, and a question: what if the resort came first?

How We Began

Three families, one shared plot, and a stubborn idea

Herms Apartments began as a shared piece of land between three families who had each built independently around Bengaluru for over a decade. Rather than divide the plot into three smaller projects, they combined it — and gave over nearly a third of it to gardens and water before laying out a single residential block.

The result took longer to plan and cost more to build than a standard podium-and-tower layout. It's also the reason the water-play pool sits at the visual centre of the estate rather than behind a boundary wall, and why every residence looks out onto green cover or water.

What Guides Us

Three commitments we don't compromise on

Landscape Before Layout

Gardens, water bodies and shaded walkways are planned before unit layouts, not squeezed in after parking counts.

Fewer, Better Typologies

Three residence types, each refined over multiple review cycles, instead of a dozen barely-different floor plans.

Maintained Like It's Ours

The founding families keep an ownership stake in the managing association — upkeep isn't outsourced and forgotten.

Who's Behind It

Built by people who live nearby, not a fund that doesn't

The team overseeing construction, landscaping and long-term maintenance at Herms Apartments has delivered residential and hospitality projects across Bengaluru's southern belt for over 25 years.
