Eco-Friendly Offices

Office@27 by Sanjay Puri Architects is Enhanced by Ancient Indian Principles

— October 21, 2024 — Art & Design
Mumbai-based architecture firm 'Sanjay Puri Architects' has unveiled an eco-friendly and sustainable office design for The Vibrant Group India, a leading real estate developer. Known as 'Office@27,' this workspace integrates environmental stewardship with modern aesthetics, reflecting the client's commitment to green building practices. Located on the 27th floor of a high-rise, the office incorporates 'Vastu' principles, aligning the structure with the five elements -- earth, water, fire, air, and space -- to create a harmonious and prosperous work environment.

The innovative ceiling treatment is made from 400 locally sourced cardboard tubes, creating a striking visual while enhancing acoustic comfort. Sustainable materials, including recycled plywood furniture and partitions crafted from wood, glass, cane, and jute, are used throughout. This eco-conscious design is visually appealing and a functional space that minimizes environmental impact.

The workspace is designed to inspire, offering employees a breakout area with panoramic views of Mumbai's skyline, creating a serene environment that fosters creativity and well-being. This project sets a new standard for green office spaces in the city.
