When building an office for a team that works on noble endeavours like children's safety and education, women's empowerment and welfare, fighting for climate change, and many more, the office space must be as humble, thoughtful, and comforting as the organisation itself. Situated in Delhi, this 22,000 square feet office is the headquarters of an NGO and is designed cost-efficiently to bring out the best in the space yet create an energising environment for a young and dynamic team.
UNIFYING THE FLOORS
The brief was to keep it simple since a non-profit organisation commissioned the work. The offices run by various groups are divided over four levels. "Our objective was to find the most efficient way to distinguish each level yet unite them all under a common theme," shares Apoorva, who is driven by passion when it comes to design. Terrazzo flooring, curved walls, exposed mechanics and large glass partitions are the key design features that tie the four levels together. Each floor is then enveloped in a unique colour representing the inhabiting organisation's branding and ethos.
Executed in grey, the ground floor houses the reception, the executive board room, and formal and informal visitor interaction spaces. A dynamic branding wall that visually connects the reception and the driveway is designed as a display for the logos of the various organisations working within the building. The reception table is made with swoops of metal, which is left unfinished, and it complements the dressy veneer-panelled background, delicately finding a balance between the finished and raw.
