For a structure located in a strategic urban corridor PN Architects and Interior Designers devise a ‘Frozen Form’ with interesting geometries that emerge from the concept of expansion and contraction.
The Hosur road connects the Silicon hub to the Bengaluru city. This spine not only connects to the IT Hub but also to industrial hub and Hosur which houses some of the largest Granite factories. The ‘Electronic City’ architecturally also houses some interesting buildings and has shaped the way the large IT buildings are perceived. Shopping malls, Exclusive automobile showrooms are all lined across this main highway. With Namma Metro also being connected on this highway, this stands to be poised to become a very strategic urban corridor.
Contextually the project site is Located on a very busy traffic corridor and prime location. Interestingly the building would not only be perceived from the Highway on ground level but also visible clearly from an elevated flyover connecting the Bengaluru city and Electronic City, a buzzling IT hub. With a linear and a trapezoidal site, the client was very clear in his expectations. The project being commercial in nature, the design needed to address the fact that the Building should make its presence felt and wanted the architecture to be very progressive. The client as developer keen on using products that are refreshing, responsive and make a statement with this Project.
As a response to the brief, the context was thoroughly utilized. The shape of the site did help in structuring an assertive form.
