The Atmosphere - Part 2 - Capturing a Cloud (HD)

The airlifting of the 'Deya', the world's first iconic residential floating sky sculpture at the Atmosphere in Kolkata.

Atmosphere, a new architectural icon in India, is a Rs. 800 crore luxury residential condominium project consisting of two tall towers which will currently be the tallest in Kolkata. The towers will feature villas in the sky with large private terraces and gardens for each unit.

Connecting the two towers and sitting 100 metres high will be the Deya. Deya which means cloud in Bengali has been designed like a floating sculpture in the sky. It will have a width of 100 metres. With four levels, the highest being the party deck, it will serve as a community space, and both its interior and outer skin will be put to use.

The structure and form of the Deya is a milestone in the evolution of modern building structures and a first for India.
