Dalcore and YOO Unveil Philippe Starck-Designed Luxury Residences in Gurgaon

Dalcore, a new-age real estate developer, has announced a groundbreaking partnership with YOO, the globally renowned design and lifestyle brand founded by international design visionary Philippe Starck and John Hitchcox. Through this collaboration, Dalcore and YOO are set to develop The Falcon, a branded residential luxury project in Sector 53, Golf Course Road, Gurgaon, one of the city’s most prestigious and well-connected addresses.

Spread across approximately 2 acres, this single iconic tower will house around 96 luxury residences, offering spacious 3 BHK and 4 BHK apartments designed for modern urban living. The project aims to combine comfort, style, and long-term value for its residents. The residences will be priced at ₹10 crores and upwards. The Falcon will be YOO’s very first project in North India, in association with Dalcore. Previously, YOO has designed five projects in India across Pune and Hyderabad, with this being the sixth project in India. Additionally, YOO has collaborated with Lodha in Mumbai and DN Group in Bhubaneswar.

Gujarat-based Shreeram Group, a 40-year-old manufacturer and exporter of industrial and edible salts adhering to international quality standards, will invest INR 500 crores in Dalcore for the development of this project.

Commenting on the partnership, Sidharth Chowdhry, Managing Director, Dalcore, shared, “This collaboration marks a major milestone for Dalcore. By joining hands with one of the world’s most celebrated design powerhouses, we aim to introduce a new language of lifestyle and design to Gurgaon. The location of The Falcon on Golf Course Road is a key differentiator; it offers exceptional connectivity and a robust social and physical infrastructure that truly complements the lifestyle we are creating. Together with YOO and Philippe Starck, we will craft residences that go beyond luxury homes that embody community, character, and purpose.”

The Falcon will be designed by Philippe Starck, bringing his iconic blend of timeless elegance, innovation, and human-centric design to the heart of Gurgaon. With more than 30 successful residential projects worldwide, YOO has redefined high-end living across continents from Sky Oasis in Macau and Icon Brickell in Miami to Gramercy in New York. Each project is a testament to YOO’s ethos of combining aesthetic sophistication with functional excellence and a strong sense of community.

A recent report highlights that India is rapidly becoming one of the most sought-after markets for branded residences. According to research by Knight Frank, the country ranks sixth globally in terms of live branded residential projects, contributing approximately 4% of the world’s supply. Moreover, a projection by Noesis Capital Advisors indicates that the number of branded-residence projects in India could increase by nearly 60% by 2027, underscoring rising demand, especially in Tier-1 cities such as the NCR, Mumbai, and Bengaluru.
