Antilia

Antilia is a residential building on Altamount Road in South Mumbai, spreading across 27 floors with raised ceilings and covering roughly 37,000 square meters (400,000 square feet) of living space. The structure reaches a height of 173 meters (568 feet) and combines residential areas with leisure facilities on multiple levels.

The project arose between 2006 and 2010 on land that previously housed an orphanage. Construction cost roughly two billion dollars and marked a turning point in discussions about residential architecture in Mumbai.

This private residence embodies a lifestyle that shapes public conversation about wealth and architecture in India. Visitors can observe the building only from the outside, as it remains fully shielded and serves exclusively the owner's family.

The site is a private home and not open to visitors, so those interested can view it only from the street. Anyone visiting the area should keep in mind that photography and lingering near the building are often discouraged.

The complex contains a room that generates artificial snowflakes to provide relief from Mumbai's tropical heat. This area uses cooling technology normally found in climate chambers or indoor winter sports facilities.
