GoodEarth Calicut – Crafting Sustainable Communities Rooted in Nature
GoodEarth Calicut is the youngest and one of the most thoughtfully evolved centres of the GoodEarth family, dedicated to building sustainable, nature-integrated communities in Kozhikode, Kerala. Founded on the principles of ecological consciousness, vernacular architecture, and human-scale development, GoodEarth in Calicut has emerged as a trusted name in the real estate landscape, known for creating living spaces that are soulful, sustainable, and socially connected.
A Philosophy Rooted in Nature and Community
Inspired by the legendary architect Laurie Baker and Mahatma Gandhi’s ideals of decentralized and eco-sensitive development, GoodEarth was established in the late 1980s by a collective of passionate architects and engineers. The Calicut office carries forward this ethos, blending the wisdom of traditional architecture with the functionality and aesthetics of modern living. Their vision is clear: to create homesteads that coexist seamlessly with the natural landscape, and to foster communities that celebrate connection, culture, and care.
Innovative Projects, Sustainable Design
GoodEarth’s projects in Calicut are more than just buildings — they are ecosystems of mindful design, community living, and environmental responsibility. From the inaugural GoodEarth Hermitage (2007) to the more recent Walk on the Clouds (2019), each development is a testament to the team’s commitment to architectural excellence and ecological harmony.
GoodEarth Hermitage was modeled after the traditional naalukettu homes of Kerala, designed with a central green courtyard that functions as the communal heart of the project. With just 16 units in 35 cents of land, it promotes close-knit, vehicle-free community living and won the Indian Institute of Architects (Kerala Chapter) award for excellence in architecture.
Walk on the Clouds, a tropical high-rise located off NH 66 at Malaparamba, features 39 thoughtfully designed single-level and duplex homes. Completed in 2019, this project is a modern response to urban living, integrating landscaped sky gardens, natural materials, and thermal-efficient designs such as cavity walls. Each unit is designed to allow natural energy flow and offers a personal green space — a rare luxury within city limits.
Other notable developments like Florican Hill (2011) and Riversong (2015) showcase the versatility of GoodEarth’s planning approach. They adopt non-conventional construction methods and adapt designs to the terrain, climate, and lifestyles of diverse homeowners.
Designing With Earth and Ethos
One of the hallmarks of GoodEarth Calicut’s design language is the use of local materials and techniques. Hollow clay bricks, composite masonry, bamboo, and steel are creatively combined to achieve a cool, well-insulated indoor climate — a nod to both tradition and innovation. These environmentally sensitive materials not only reduce the carbon footprint but also enhance the aesthetic appeal of each home.
Every aspect of a GoodEarth home is scaled down to human proportions, creating warm, inviting spaces that foster relationships — with both people and the environment. Whether it’s a courtyard for birds and children or a sky garden that brings the outdoors into your apartment, each design element is purposeful.
More Than a Builder — A Community Maker
What sets GoodEarth apart in Calicut’s crowded real estate market is its deep commitment to community building. Projects are not just about the physical space, but about enabling interactions, shared experiences, and sustainable lifestyles. The layout encourages social mingling, collective celebrations, and a sense of belonging. From elderly residents to young families, everyone finds a place — and a purpose — within a GoodEarth community.
A Legacy of Trust and Vision
Over the past 35+ years, GoodEarth has evolved into a multi-disciplinary organization with projects spanning residential development, regenerative agriculture, and ecological restoration. Their approach is rooted in observation, simplicity, and respect for nature’s rhythms. Every project is a journey — one shaped by feedback, collaboration, and innovation.
As they continue to grow, GoodEarth Calicut remains unwavering in its mission: to offer homes that are not just buildings but living, breathing environments. If you are looking for a home that’s built with care, steeped in sustainability, and grounded in timeless values, GoodEarth Calicut is where your search ends.
