Baldiwala Edge designs a Singapore-based ship broker's office as a torch collector's paradise, offering a 360-degree bird's-eye view of the Mumbai skyline

THE WINNER'S PERCH

PROJECT: The Winner's Perch, Mumbai; DESIGNERS: Baldiwala Edge

The Olympic torch that we see today has not been the same forever. It has evolved over the years— from a bowl with a silver ring and a leather handle in 1980, designed by Don McFarland, to the Paris 2024 torch, which features themes of equality, water and peace, designed by French designer Mathieu Lehanneur. The fervor for torch collecting is nothing short of intense and is truly leagues apart from the world of collecting sports cards or uniforms.

This South Mumbai office by Baldiwala Edge, belonging to a Singapore-based ship broker and a passionate torch collector, takes one through the evolution of Olympic torches over the years, all while providing a breathtaking 360-degree bird’s-eye view of the Mumbai skyline from halfway up. The ask- “an office that lets everyone be in touch and see everything that is going on around the space” says Baldiwala. “This was achieved with ample roaming light that bounces off the muted materials and natural wood used across, lending warmth to tones of whites and beiges – something that his wife was very keen on.”

Retaining the unhindered ceiling height opened the space to the uninterrupted panoramic views of the cityscapes.
