Spread across three floors, this large office in Pune was made using a primarily white palette albeit infused with character by SRDA’s signature interventions.
The office has terrazzo floors, maple woods and RMD boards. The ceiling height in this office was just 8 ft. Pipes running across the top needed to be concealed, but creating a false ceiling was obviously not an option. So Samira Rathod from SRDA created a ‘wavy’ ceiling which undulates to accommodate pipes, and yet maintains whatever ceiling height is possible – ensuring, in the process, that space is not sacrificed entirely. This solution becomes a design element and adds a sculpturesque feel to the space.
In this modern office, the functional pieces themselves become art. The space is a self-sustaining one. For instance, one of the floors has a ‘forest’ of wooden sticks which rise from the partitions between work-stations, towards the ceiling; the undulating ceiling itself; or SRDA’s signature light fittings which dot the space.
