The design of the DP Jain Infra corporate firm in Nagpur recontextualizes the very meaning of workspaces by creating an environment that is a catalyst for creativity and collaboration.The office building architecture expands beyond the boundaries of an ‘office’, creating a conversation between internal and external environments.
The layouts of each floor and careful details in the interiors link the building’s contemporary office architecture design to the local climate and culture of Nagpur. An ergonomic reorganisation of the office’s various systems lent itself to a minimalist and modular design response that is intuitive and modern.
Within the office interior design, each floor is planned with both individual and collective work in mind. Private cabins and meeting rooms are balanced out with a large open plan seating area, community tables, multi-heighted dividers, and informal seating. Moveable glass and fabric partitions facilitate flexibility of use, while fixed elements like marble planters, ensure that the overall flow of the space remains undisturbed.
Contextual Interiors
The airiness of the office building architecture is complimented by the muted tones of the fabrics and interior finishes. Neutral cottons and linen weaves are paired against wooden elements and grey marble. The woven patterns inspired from local fabric weaving techniques on the pin boards and dividers softens the entire interior experience, and gives a nod to the local culture and handicraft of Nagpur.
On the 11th floor, this design is subverted, turned inside out. The light and informal spaces give way to a more heady, contemplative palette. Black Belgian marble flooring, polished brass hardware, and darker fabric panels give the executive suite a gravitas that is worthy of its occupiers. Sunlight streams through a central skylight, onto a single, substantial Champa tree - a dramatic, heightened nod to the biophilic design of the rest of the building.
The office interior design is one that successfully balances human and climatic needs through a design that is bold and still functional.
