Functional Disposition

The scope of project is spread over three floors (Basement+Ground+Mezzanine) with the basement primarily used as the storage facility, CNC machine work, and small demonstration halls.

The ground floor serves the critical purpose of the whole space and is used for demonstration of various products and accessories that are designed at REN. The main lobby at the entrance has a double height that is further accentuated with an elemental cantilevered staircase, suspended light installations, double height exposed brick tile wall and a wood-metal false ceiling.

Demonstration halls are created as part of the ground floor that further add to the experience of the visitor. The floor is supported with meeting rooms, a director’s cabin and support utilities.

As part of the whole demonstration experience, the mezzanine floor is used for business purpose with conferences and meeting rooms taking up the major area of the floor space. The mezzanine floor is kept segregated from the visitor’s area and is used primarily by the directors and other high-profile people working at REN.

Material Palette

A variety of un-conventional materials are used in the design of the office space. Brick tiles are used for the feature wall behind the reception at the entrance lobby that also serves as the backdrop to the displayed artwork. Bamboo is used in the false ceiling to add levels in the spatial volume of the rooms. The false ceiling further adds a natural texture to the interior space.

Jute ropes are used in conjunction with wood and bamboo that serve the purpose of tying various members and also add aesthetic value to the template. Different sizes and colors are used on cardboard rolls are used to design lamp shades that are suspended in the double height areas.

All the machinery and print media that is used at REN come packaged in wood plank boxes. This wood is re-used in the false ceiling of all the public areas including the reception lobby, conference rooms and director cabins. Fabric screens and jaalis are custom made to match the overall design of the space and are used as visual partitions for all private cabins. The flooring is kept simple with the use of jaisalmer stone that adds a bold backdrop to the overall composition. Apart from these materials, conventional materials like glass, gypsum, wood, plywood etc. are used to support and provide detail to the whole theme.
