Location Hyderabad Client IOCL Project type Corporate Site area 0.79 Acres Built up area 71042 Sq. Ft. Scope Proposal
This corporate office building was designed to act as a signature building for IOCL, as its situated in a very prime location in Hyderabad. Since the site is located at the junction of two roads, the building gets good visibility; the form of the building was designed keeping this in mind. The curve of the plot is reflected in the volume of the building, and interlocking geometric forms keep the elevations interesting from all angles. The 10% required green space was strategically placed so as to increase the frontage thus giving pedestrians a good view of the building too. A combination on ACP and glass accentuates the forms, and the canopy above gives the building a stronger skyline.

It was clear that IOCL needed an impactful new presence, yet subtle to the Indian context. In keeping with the Indian Oil spirit, we conceived a project that was powerful in its simplicity yet cost- effective. We developed a visual language with a new Oil rig-like complex to communicate quality along with dwell-defined faade language to distinguish it as a brand within the urban landscape. The idea of the traditional DIYA the oil lamp constituted the concept. We envisaged a complex engulfed with earth and with its core court the oil itself. Bold brown sandstone conveys the idea of engulfing oil within itself which is designed as a visual glazing system maximizing day lighting. We created an engaging setting for all the four buildings required within the complex.

The design brief called for a modern design, hi-tech operational base. The key elements of the design are spatial analysis, reinterpretation of traditional architecture, careful selection of materials and manipulation of light. The overall result is a carefully thought out design that caters very well to the office needs. The proposed design gives an identity to the different offices as a unified organization, while giving individual expression to the separate departments and their unique activities. The accommodation is laid out as a series of three blocks; each block houses key services and individual departments. The blocks are gathered and connected along a large podium space, a civic forum, which gives access to all of the building facilities. Open and fully accessible spaces allow the buildings to be navigated in a safe and efficient manner, while offering opportunities for civic ceremonies, presentations and social gatherings. Separating the blocks and connecting the interiors with the surrounding landscape, providing a sense of place and context. These spaces combine to place social interaction at the heart of the building and allow the public realm to pervade the whole building at ground floor.

The idea of the project is oriented on a simple geometry, strictly monolithic, in close complementary relationship with the usage that defines it. The severity of pure geometric form is a counterpoint facade application, a dense repetition of the geometric matrix 850 mm x 850mm that engulfs an overall pattern, compact and lightweight at the same time. The base connectivity of the existing street is looped overall via alternative floors. The overall experience is drawn as an elevated street connection so as to elongate the street shopping experience and facilitate the vendors in not having stands in every floor.

Transferring this into an architectural environment was done by the three dimensional mobius band. The main walkway amalgamates the idea of an Indian bazaar of yore. The pathway becomes a datum on which institutions, hospitals and residential units are scattered. Comprising of hospitals, medical, nursing, dental and pharmacy colleges and support buildings on a 100 acre campus this research oriented institution also houses staff and students in residential units summing up to 4 million SF.

The modernization of the airport included a renovation and expansion of already existing Terminal A and a new consolidated rental car facility. The new high-tech design for Terminal B is contextually inspired by San Joses technological region, the Silicon Valley. The terminal Nicknamed Telescope, a symbolic look of the future, will project the regions character as the outer casing which is based on the design of a coaxial cable.

The existing airport required a retail area that could compliment the international design standards of the new existing airport. With Domestic and International traffic moving in close proximity, it has a complex set of planning parameters. The key challenge was to build a phased approach to the overall commercial master-plan whereby the end picture can be implemented phase wise as traffic numbers develop without unnecessary capital write-offs or disruption. Our design scope has included all retail zones (including Domestic and International).

As the world airports go through a makeover, Male is no step behind. GMR started the year by taking over the operations from the Maldivian authorities. The idea was to very strategically enhance the overall look and feel of the entire terminal with very minimal modifications as the airport already has a shelf life of 3 years with the new terminal coming up. Again being one of the very old airports the coordination between existing and new has been one of the most challenging aspects of the project. In addition to which KGD had to come up with a retail planning to ensure the passenger holding was increased in order to increase the dwell time. The new design has added a new feel to the complete terminal and the planning of breaking the whole project into multiple packages has helped in ensuring that the timelines of construction are very controlled.

In this project, the existing bus terminal on 14.43 acres has been converted to a mixeduse development, with 60% allotted for the bus terminal, and 40% for commercial use. The commercial zone with 7 lakh sqft of BUA (which includes a shopping mall, 3 star hotel and residential apartments) is located on the portion of the site facing the main road for better saleability and to create a visible landmark with the shopping mall. The existing entry and exit points for the bus terminal have been retained to minimize disruption of the macro level city traffic patterns. The curvilinear road connecting these entry and exit points divides the site into two zones, with the terminal in the rear portion, and the commercial zone in the front. A green belt runs adjacent to this road creating visual appeal. The mall and business hotel are both accessible from the main road, and have individual building entrances and exits, as well as basement parking. The space designed between the mall and hotel serves as an active communal plaza. The residential apartments are on the rear side with a separate entry from the secondary road for privacy.
