The assignment consisted of the design of an Events Center for 1.000 people located in Santiago de Chile. The land had the potential that there were ruins of an old 19th century mansion located on a small hill.
Through work with archaeologists, all of the stone and masonry walls that remained in the place were rescued. The cleaning and removal of land accumulated by earthquakes and looting, revealed the importance and elegance of the ruin, transforming them into elements that could be protagonists within the architectural proposal. In this way, the main concept was to value the vestiges and original materials of the existing ruin so that they function as a backdrop for the events center, seeking to build only the essential elements required for the new uses and programs. The project is integrated in between a system of walls, patios and esplanades that configure interior, extension or cocktail spaces; being located among the ruins of the house, which allows it to have a privileged view over the sector, and in turn become a recognizable urban landmark for the commune.

The new business center class A is in the 1st Zemelniy lane, not far from the «Ulitsa 1905 Goda» undegraund station, near Krasnopresnenskaya embankment and the business district Moscow City.
The business center project was developed by the UNK Project architectural bureau. A distinctive feature and recognizable element of the architectural appearance of the building is the openwork, grid-like shell on the facade. This principle is widely used in the progressive architecture of the 21st century and it also refers to the model of Soviet constructivism, reminding of the tower of engineer Shukhov. Triangular at first sight in cross-section building has no sharp corners. They are rounded and closed with a mesh structure that softens the appearance of the building.
The PCJF Skill Development Center in Mumbai is a CSR project designed to create an inspiring and encouraging learning environment.
The design concept focuses on crafting multi-functional spaces for the institution, emphasising effective space utilisation and acoustics to control elevated sound levels while breaking away from the typical and cliché classrooms. The site was previously used as a gymnasium on the top floor of a commercial building- with bulky beams, stand-alone columns creating dead spaces and minimal natural ventilation. This area needed to be converted into a centre, where one could get hands-on practical training and accommodate heavy machinery within a clutter-free environment.
Nestled on the foothills of the Himalayas in the city of Dehradun, a facility for assisted living sits in hypnotic tranquility. The plot is around 4 acres which is surrounded by dense Mango & Litchi orchards and a British Bungalow, dating back to the Colonial Period. The approach was to capitulate to a design solution that would respect the heritage and natural environment of the site. Although the plot was in the middle of an urban landscape, it still had its independent eco-system with orchards. This instilled a sense of safety due to the site’s proximity to city-facilities yet enjoying the calming shade of green foliage.
