The Imelda.inc office in New Delhi has been built as an experience centre, finds Shristi Nangalia
-
Evidently, when any company starts investing in itself, the clients and employees become more invested in the company. Inspiring office spaces not only motive and engage employees but also cater to a productive and profitable setup. When designed carefully, the office can also enhance the company culture. It is a medium that reflects and reinforces a business’s core values through functions and design elements.
The client, denim business brand Imelda.inc, wanted a space that would similarly define themselves and their venture. The brand gave Spaces Architects@ ka the brief to set up a themebased office with a factory and showroom under one roof.
The concept was visualised with denim and other materials (such as threads, scissors, buttons, etc) that are used or related to those needed to produce a finished denim product. The objective was to use these material elements in an abstract way to create an intriguing story. Since the space was a theme-based concept, each detail was customised to add a connection between the elements. Another objective was to create a setting, where visitors could connect the ideology and creative spirit of the space.
