Finding the right balance
Commercial Design|June 2022
The Soch Office, design by Saniya Kantawala Design, is an office space that embodies the balance between comfort, efficiency as well as aesthetics
Finding the right balance

The Soch Group is an organisation that is a mix of varied verticals with entrepreneurship at its core. Celebrating and materialising the company's ethos, their office, designed by SKD, embodies the same spirit. Located in Mumbai, the Soch office is conceptualised with an efficient approach to planning and eye-catching aesthetics creating an impeccable balance of the two. Designed to offer maximum functionality within the limited real estate space, the Soch office is a warm and comfortable office space for a young, millennial workforce.

Spanning over 3500 sq.ft, the office is divided into a central reception zone, with a dedicated staff area on one side and a director's zone on the other. As one enters the office space, they are welcomed by the reception and waiting area, both of which are designed in colours of sunrise to create a vibrant, yet elegant colour palette. Connecting with the staff area visually as well as volumetrically, a uniform flooring pattern creates a flow of spaces throughout the office. The reception desk is clad in tiles to recreate the aesthetics and textures of a rug with hand-painted tassels to add quirky details.
