With the aim to build a workspace that would resonate with the local identity, while retaining the companys global persona, KGD Architecture was entrusted with the task to design Facebooks HQ in Hyderabad
The design brief was straight forward. Firstly, since no job is small or big at Facebook, this aspect needed to shine through in the design scheme. Then, given that the office would mark the company’s entry into the country, the need was to represent Indian culture and bring in a local flavour, while staying clear from typical office ambiences. Additionally, the brief emphasised the need for a workspace where employees can gather, socialise and collaborate. The work environment had to go beyond desks and find different avenues where ideas can be born and bred. ‘Open culture’ was the goal and KGD had to find a localinspired design narrative for it.
