I met Piyush Pandey only a couple of times, and laughed and laughed each time. But his influence on me went further than that. People who worked with him and learnt from him have helped shape our brand over the years. I enjoy a good line, and they gave me the right one each time.

For our holiday villas in Mandrem, a line that reaches out to the true lovers of Goa: the people who carry the place with them long after they leave.

SeaSky: for the uncommon ones

For a house designed for the discerning few, who see beyond the price per square foot and the address, to the life a place makes possible.

They may not be as great as the master's own. But the master was Piyush; these were written by his disciples. And they still tell us, every day, why we do what we do.
