Project Description

Claris Lifesciences Ltd, a leading Gujarat based pharmaceutical company, requested HCPID to design the interiors for their administrative building, and to treat this project as part of the company’s global brand building exercise. The HCPID team decided to address the branding requirement in two ways: to reflect the brand global positioning by creating elegant and polished public areas; and, the use of photo murals, history panels and textiles for more direct branding. The design solution intentionally creates an extra spacious lobby with a dramatic play of artificial light. The layout is uncluttered and furniture designs emphasize clean lines. The customized lighting fixtures have a quality of being impressive without being overwhelming. Accessories help create an ambiance of a high quality, technology focused company with an very international outlook. Blue, a company colour, symbolizing water, is strategically deployed in the flooring, transparency of glass and commissioned art works. The minimal style of furniture and furnishings opened up the spaces which combined with backlit graphical art, is used to achieve a feel of an ordered space which is not merely functional.
