Why 85,000 sq ft Is a Meaningful Number
Most residential projects in NCR's premium segment advertise a "world-class clubhouse" with impressive square-footage claims. To put Gaur Plume's approx. 85,000 sq ft in context:
- A typical standalone neighbourhood club (Delhi Gymkhana, Delhi Golf Club) runs 50,000–80,000 sq ft of built floor area. Gaur Plume's clubhouse is larger than many such clubs that serve entire neighbourhoods with paid memberships.
- An 85,000 sq ft building across 4 floors is approximately the size of a mid-scale commercial office building of 5–6 floors — a building that houses 400–500 people comfortably in a corporate context.
- Spread across a project of 8 towers, this means the clubhouse floor area is significant relative to the resident population — which keeps crowding low and maintains the resort-club feel over the long term.
The Peacock Design Concept
The clubhouse is not merely branded with peacock imagery — it is architecturally conceived in that language. Per the developer's dossier, the structure takes the form of a circular feather-form building: the plan is based on the radiating arc of a peacock's tail feather, with the building's central spine as the quill and the amenity floors spreading outward as the barbs.
This has practical implications for the interior: a circular-plan building eliminates long, dark corridors. Every level's primary circulation spaces are naturally lit from the perimeter, and the central atrium of the double-height lobby becomes the social and visual heart of the building. The peacock palette — deep teal, iridescent blue-green, gold — runs through the materiality from the lobby floor to the wellness floors, creating a sensory coherence that distinguishes Plume from projects where the "theme" is a logo on a lobby wall.
The Double-height Entrance Lobby
The clubhouse opens into a double-height entrance lobby — a space that is approximately 25–30 feet from floor to ceiling (two full storeys). This is both a practical and an emotional choice. Practically, a double-height lobby anchors the clubhouse entry as a clear, legible landmark within the 11.8-acre site — you always know where the club is, and the scale signals arrival. Emotionally, it is the transition from the residential streets of the project to the club experience — the moment of decompression after a working day.
The lobby typically houses the concierge/reception, a waiting lounge, and the circulation core (elevator, staircase) that distributes members to the four levels. In a peacock-themed project, the lobby feather-form ceiling and the central oculus above become the defining design statement of the building.
The Four Levels: A Conceptual Breakdown
Per the developer's brochure, the 85,000 sq ft is distributed across four levels, each themed to a zone of community life. The following is a conceptual interpretation of the typical zoning for a project of this scale and ambition — buyers should request the actual floor plan of the clubhouse from Vidit Kaushik for the confirmed level-by-level breakdown.
Ground Level — Arrival, Social and Leisure
The ground level is the most public and social floor. Beyond the double-height lobby, it typically houses the primary social zones: a café or bistro for the community's daily meeting point, a banquet hall or event space for large gatherings (weddings, corporate events for residents, birthday parties), and opening decks that connect to the pool and landscaped greens. The ground level is where the club's daytime social life happens — it should be the busiest floor of the building between 7 AM and 9 PM.
Level 1 — Fitness, Wellness and Sport
A dedicated fitness and wellness floor at this scale can accommodate what few residential projects offer: a professional-grade gym (not a hotel-style room with six treadmills but a facility with free weights, cable machines, a cardio zone and functional training space), a yoga and meditation studio, an aerobics or dance studio, and a dedicated spa with steam, sauna, jacuzzi and treatment rooms. At 85,000 sq ft across 4 floors, each floor is approximately 21,000 sq ft — a floor larger than a standard commercial floor plate. The fitness floor in a project of this ambition should be genuinely large enough to serve 200–300 residents simultaneously without crowding.
Level 2 — Sport, Recreation and Outdoor Decks
Indoor sport at this scale typically includes: a squash court, a badminton court, a table tennis zone, billiards, a putting green, and possibly a half-court basketball zone. Outdoor sport (on the podium decks at this level) can include a rooftop cricket practice net, a tennis or pickleball court, and additional pool decks. The conceptual outdoor deck at Level 2 connects the clubhouse to the landscaped greens at the podium level, where the resort-pool experience sits.
Level 3 (Top Level) — Skylounge, Work and Quiet
The top level in a premium clubhouse serves the community's quieter needs: a skylounge with panoramic views over the greens and the Yamuna Expressway corridor, a co-working or business lounge (essential for the growing population of residents who work from home one or two days a week), a library or reading room, and possibly a private dining or private meeting room that can be reserved by residents for small events.
The 75+ Amenities: What to Expect
The developer's brochure lists 75+ amenities. This count includes both the major anchor amenities and the ancillary facilities. A typical premium project's amenity list at this count includes:
Water & Pool
- Resort-style main pool
- Kids' splash pool
- Jacuzzi / hydrotherapy pool
- Pool deck with sun loungers
- Pool café / sundowner bar
Fitness & Wellness
- Professional gymnasium
- Yoga & meditation studio

- Spa with steam & sauna
- Treatment / massage rooms
Sport & Recreation
- Squash court
- Badminton court
- Table tennis
- Billiards
- Cricket practice net
Social & Work
- Banquet / event hall
- Café & bistro
- Co-working lounge
- Skylounge
- Private dining rooms
All amenity items above are illustrative of what a 75+ amenity, 85,000 sq ft project typically includes and are not confirmed line-by-line specifications for Gaur Plume. The developer's brochure amenity list is shared with registered enquirers. Final specifications as per the Agreement for Sale.
The 8 Acres of Landscaped Greens
Separate from the clubhouse, Gaur Plume allocates approximately 8 acres of the total 11.8 acres to landscaped greens and lifestyle zones. This is an unusually high open-space ratio — approximately 68% of the site is green rather than built. By comparison, many NCR projects in this price range have 30–40% green area after towers and podiums are accounted for.
The landscape design is led by Clint Owen of Site Concepts International, whose practice is internationally recognised for resort-quality landscape work. The greens are conceptually conceived as distinct lifestyle zones — a formal garden adjoining the clubhouse, a children's play zone, a walking and jogging trail, a meditation garden, and sports lawns — rather than undifferentiated lawn. The landscape design language follows the peacock theme in planting palette and hardscape materiality.
What Pre-launch Buyers Should Know About Amenities
At this stage, all amenities are conceptual — they are commitments made in the developer's brochure and marketing material. The legal commitments are made in the Agreement for Sale, which is the document signed when a unit is formally allotted (after RERA registration). Buyers at the pre-launch EOI stage should:
- Request the developer's full amenity list (shared with registered enquirers) to understand the scope of commitments.
- Ask specifically which amenities will be part of Phase 1 and the Phase 1 clubhouse — some amenities in large projects are deferred to Phase 2 or later.
- Understand the maintenance charge structure — an 85,000 sq ft clubhouse has significant operating costs that will be reflected in the monthly maintenance charge post-possession.
- Confirm the clubhouse completion is tied to possession — that it will be ready at the same time as the towers.
All amenities per the developer's brochure and conceptual. Final specifications per the Agreement for Sale. Pre-launch BSP ₹8,499/sq.ft* — indicative, subject to change, T&C apply. RERA registration being obtained.

When will the Gaur Plume clubhouse be ready?
Gaur Plume is at pre-launch stage (RERA registration being obtained). Possession and clubhouse completion timelines will be confirmed in the Agreement for Sale post-RERA registration. No delivery dates are stated at this pre-launch stage.
