Project Description

The design concept of the Astral (Pipes) building extension was based on values that reflected the brand’s purpose and progress of development.This linear, stacked architectural structure had to accommodate work spaces and various offices that provide unique, comfortable spaces. Overall unity in design was achieved by the permeable separation of each space ensuring a sense of inner flow and continuity which reflected the functional properties of pipes, the client’s core product.

The double height reception area within the raw concrete shell of the building provides a space where conversations are encouraged, introductions to the brand are initiated and plans for future interactions anticipated. The selection of lighting, artwork and furniture creates a sense of finesse and prime quality in the fine-dining area whereas the cafeteria provides a comfortable space promoting teamwork and togetherness.

The meeting rooms in the first floor echoes the ‘Pro-Excellence’ standards of the brand.With lighting design that encourages productivity, partitions integrating acoustical features and appealing aesthetics that facilitate strategic planning, these rooms provide spaces that have the potential to manifest excellence.

The subsequent floors integrate the core values for the progress of development of the company with inspiring spaces for every type of working style – Large work halls, smaller cabin units, private cabins, training hall, Board room, etc.Each space has been designed with its own personal characteristics – that unite together to create a workspace that stimulate efficient productivity, systematic organization and enhances well-being.

The top storey with the head offices, constitute the ‘Pro – Leader’ executive floor. These spaces emanate a sense of perfection and exquisite quality that in turn demonstrate confidence and authority in industry experience.

This building extension of the corporate office fosters teamwork, encourages constructive development, and increases operational efficiencies while successfully accommodating all the required functional aspects.
