By reinterpreting its functions, Oberoi Realty’s latest commercial tower, Commerz II, skillfully manipulates the scale and mass of the structure to build on its clients requirements.

Continuing The Legacy

In Mumbai’s incompressible dimensions of its buildings’ footprints, there are thousands of emerging commercial buildings that shape the skyline. Merging with this conventional background, the design approach taken up by Oberoi Realty for its mixed-use complex, Oberoi Garden City (OGC), defies the prevalent continuity of planning and has developed a language of its own. The real-estate company has been a pioneer in creating the first mixed-use building of the country – Commerz, which houses Westin hotel, office spaces and retail facilities.

Behind the company’s impeccably marked journey through these years has been a team whose vision idealised every facet of its core principles. Led by Rajendra Chandorkar, EVP, Architecture & Design, Oberoi Realty, the team explains the genesis of Commerz II, the latest addition to the complex.

Setting a premise to the buildings context, Chandorkar illustrates its complete planning process. “Being a part of the landmark OGC, Commerz II stands within the area designated as ‘International Business Park’ alongside Commerz. Situated right off the edge of the Western Express Highway, Goregaon, the building is set amidst lush green Aarey plains and hills on one side and complemented by the ever-bustling highway on the other,” he states.
