The Expand Loft is characterised as an open office space of 2,400 sq ft, situated in Mumbai, designed for a corporate event management company. The design brief was to create a fun and vibrant environment for its employees, while facilitating a natural flow of movement, encouraging interaction, and promoting collaboration.
The entire office has been crafted with an approximately 14 foot high ceiling, with panoramic windows that offer expansive views of the city. The floor-to-ceiling windows bring in abundant natural light into the area. Driven by an industrial look and feel for the complete interior theme, a neutral color palette is used throughout the space with different accent pops of colors such as yellow, green, and red to accentuate the interiors within the office. These accents are intentionally incorporated to contrast with the industrial-style theme.
Taking inspiration from the company logo, hints of yellow are added throughout the space to build on brand recall. An inviting atmosphere is created for visitors as they step into the reception area. The reception desk, finished in IPS, offers a welcoming entrance for users while the decorative light, suspended from the ceiling, serves as an installation to endow identity to the space.
