Description :

N.D.D.C. was founded in 2011, with a vision to build an international design organization. The Office design was conceptualized to be a place of both worlds. Keeping this in mind, it was divided mainly into two zones; a formal Indoor Space & an informal Outdoor Design Studio.

The Principal Architect uses the Indoor Studio, where the emphasis is placed on ‘Transformation of Space’. This is achieved by openable presentation panels for meetings, which when not required can be simply closed. There is personal working space inserted in a window offering a panoramic view of the Parvati Hill. This can be closed without any trace of it.

The Outdoor Studio is more of an Informal space. It was originally just a covered terrace acting as an extension to an office space. It has been designed keeping in mind the Sustainability principles, wherein most of the materials have been reused & recycled, lots of green areas, the use of Solar Electricity; thus, effectively reducing the Carbon Footprint.
