Transparency and accessibility were major tenets for the client – symbolizing their values and culture of the workplace – which are translated into the design through the careful use of materials like glass and an effective demarcation of zones respectively.
With 12 ft high ceilings to contend with, the design takes advantage of the same by exposing the services and making them one with the space.
Exposed surfaces and finishes add to the tactility and ultimately the character of the workspace – a melange of rough and smooth textures that invite the visitor to touch and experience the same.
Connected to a terrace on the 10th floor, the exterior space adds another dimension to the workplace acting like a spill out area – for meetings, gatherings or even a quick lunch or tea break, overlooking the bustling streets of Worli Naka.
