The existing building housed their Diamond Polishing & Cutting Departments but they needed to add a Jewellery Creative Design Research & Development Department, for which they needed two additional floors to be added to the building.

The new design for the building took care of this by a three-pronged approach – Creating a setback from the facade, thereby forming a front terrace garden, Designing a courtyard on the second floor, and Incorporating a private terrace at the rear end of the building. These design changes in the form of the building allowed us the freedom to have large spanned spaces while achieving good natural light quality. The space was planned as an open office to allow for easy interaction between the team members. Staying within the City Building Bye-laws & FSI guidelines, interactive and recreational spaces were created, to allow ample natural light through a series of courtyard and garden terraces. These playful, well-lit, interactive outdoor spaces, support an ambiance of creativity for the Design R & D Team.

The material palette used is mainly glass, steel, exposed concrete rendering, and exposed brick cladding. Cladding the building was a conscious choice to reduce the weight of the facade and for this, originally baked bricks were thinly cut, to layer the facade.
