Alhad Gore of Beyond Design Architects & Consultants brings his architectural expertise to life in the new office for Atul Patel Architects, blending functionality with creative flair to craft a workspace that inspires innovation and collaboration
WHERE CREATIVITY WORKS

Designing an office for a fellow architect is akin to performing a duet with another virtuoso. Both parties are fluent in the language of design, but the challenge lies in creating a symphony where two creative minds find harmony. This was the task before Alhad Gore, the principal architect at Beyond Designs Architects & Consultants, when Atul Patel Architects approached him to craft their new office in Navi Mumbai. The result is a striking 12,000-square-foot workspace that effortlessly fuses functionality, elegance, and brand identity, setting a new benchmark for workplace design in the region.

A VISION BEYOND FUNCTIONALITY

The brief was as ambitious as it was clear. Atul Patel Architects, transitioning from a compact 1,000-square-foot office to a sprawling new space, sought a design that would capture their brand’s essence, energise their employees, and create an inviting atmosphere for clients. More importantly, they wanted an office that would speak of their identity as a designforward practice—a corporate office, but with an unmistakable creative flair.

“From the outset, it was clear that this wouldn’t be a typical ‘rustic’ architect’s office,” says Alhad Gore. “This was about creating a polished, modern workspace that could inspire and resonate while staying true to the ethos of a design firm.”

STRATEGIC SPACE PLANNING

The challenge of working with an entire floor of 12,000 square feet was approached with precision. Maximising natural light was a key objective, particularly for the workstations that flanked the glass-lined perimeters of the building. Cabins and meeting rooms were strategically positioned around the building’s core, allowing sunlight to permeate deeper into the interior spaces.
