How far can one's sense of innovation in design go? Can it offer the elements of a structure varied experiences within the exact spatial coordinates? Can it simultaneously address the need for wellness, sustainability, leisure, and work?

Mumbai-based studio ADND offers positive responses to these questions with their ingenious project, the Zydus Wellness. Located in Goregaon, Mumbai, the office facility serves as a business hub for an integrated consumer company. Zydus Wellness is engaged in developing, producing, marketing, and distributing health and wellness products. The company believes that the term 'wellness' is an active process of becoming aware of and making choices toward a healthy and fulfilling life. It also means creating and living in spaces that nourish our bodies and mind. This laid out the conceptual foundation for the design, which was to create a mindful space achieving the Zydus way of being.

Zydus Wellness is an extension of Zydus Cadila, which is a pharmaceutical company and thus, focuses on products related to lifestyle and wellness. Given this, the brand wanted to incorporate the sense of wellness within the interiors by having a space that reflects the brand's ethos; and the architects achieved this goal seamlessly.
