An office that was designed by Dipen Gada and Associates for a builder in Vadodara has flooring that is indigo blue and is encircled by green pockets that wrap around its perimeter… The notion of having a eucalyptus leaf carved out of the ceiling slab in the reception-cum-central lobby section of the workplace resulted in the creation of the blue flooring as a consequence of the idea. Fortunately, since the developer owned the building, the architect had the freedom to experiment with a few architectural aspects on this 8,150 square foot premises that was located on the highest level. During the process of cutting the ceiling slab, this region was inundated with intense heat and brightness, both of which required to be regulated. The chief architect, Dipen Gada, recalls that this was the time when the decision was made to use indigo blue colored oxide flooring because of its excellent absorption and calming effects. A composition that is especially crafted out of 19-mm thick buff acrylic that mimics the slab cut out is used to handle acoustics in an effective manner. Pergolas that are designed in aluminum-and-wooden finish laminate effectively mitigate the problem of direct sunlight shining into the central space. An intriguing phenomenon occurs as the sun’s position changes during the day, causing a dynamic interplay of light and shadow to be reflected on the walls and floors of this rectilinear core area. This central space acts as the lifeline of the interior, as it is used for free-wheeling interactions and, at the same time, it sets the tone and work culture of the company. It is surrounded by CEO cabins, engineering cabins, administrative cabins, and accounts cabins, as well as a conference room, dining area, and other areas that are used for routine tasks. The green balconies that wrap the full perimeter of the workplace and serve as spill out areas are yet another element that stands out as something special. All of the interiors of the cabins are kept basic and uncluttered thanks to the significant use of wooden battens with clean lines. Carpets and paneling are used to address any acoustic concerns that may arise. The ceo cabins have a bit of flair, as seen by the presence of Italian marble floors, a bespoke table with copper inlay, and light fixtures that have been built specifically for the purpose. Within the context of the overall aesthetic, there is a clear application of art and sculpture. When one enters the workplace, for example, there is a range of Indian male figures (just heads) that are plastered into the concrete wall. Moving a little farther, there is abstract ceramic art produced by artist Vinod Daros that is located next to the reception table. Additionally, a ‘namon’ clock and a bronze sculpture created by the artist Asish Das are shown on a wall that is made of RC. The provision of a vast location for workers to halt, relax, communicate, and transit, as well as an environment where beauty and perspective coexist, is a significant benefit.
