Anuja Sawant, Alpa Shikre & Sonali GupteThe design concept of integrating Indian heritage into Mudra Communications Limited’s headquarters seamlessly merges modern architectural elements with traditional Indian motifs. Red clay fins and an olive-colored glass envelope evoke a sense of contemporary design while paying homage to Indian craftsmanship. The focal point of the building is a striking curvilinear white canopy that spans the 8th-floor terrace, creating a visually powerful statement. Within the interior spaces, Mudra’s vibrant brand identity is reflected through the incorporation of Warli pictographs and a vibrant palette inspired by VIBGYOR.
The project prioritized sustainability, aiming for LEED Gold certification. Energy-efficient design features, such as high-performance windows and efficient HVAC systems, were integrated to reduce environmental impact. Water-saving fixtures and an on-site wastewater treatment plant contribute to resource conservation. The building’s orientation and material selection further enhance energy efficiency and thermal performance.
The building offers state-of-the-art amenities, including a gym, Table Tennis Table, and an amphitheater that doubles as a green space when not in use. The cafeteria spills out into an outdoor garden, fostering social integration among occupants. Plush landscaping on the terrace, along with a juice and cocktail drinks bar, facilitates in-house gatherings and parties. These amenities enhance occupant well-being and promote collaboration.
