Corporate and Tech Campus Architecture
We design workspaces that function as ecosystems for innovation. Our approach strips away superficial trends to prioritize natural light, circulation, and the genuine functional needs of the people using the space.
The ground level of this tech campus is designed as an inclusive community space. A large water feature and shaded walkways create a serene environment with restaurants and amenities, blurring the line between a private office campus and a public urban plaza.
We believe in integrating our buildings with the natural landscape. This view of the Bagmane tech campus shows how the curved glass facade reflects the surrounding trees and water, creating a harmonious relationship between the built and natural environments.
This is the "Beacon," a striking architectural centerpiece for the ePositive net positive energy research campus near Hyderabad. Elevated 40 meters in the sky, this 30 meter diameter structure is a bold expression of innovation in energy storage and sustainability.
At the Amara Raja net positive campus, we designed spaces that seamlessly integrate nature with cutting edge science. A covered walkway curves around a naturalistic water body, providing a space for researchers to connect and reflect, fostering a culture of innovation.
The design of the ePositive campus emphasizes porous, open spaces. This view shows the interplay between the modern research labs and the natural water features, creating a tranquil yet intellectually stimulating environment for scientists and researchers.
The 'C Lab' at the ePositive campus is part of a larger design that connects multiple buildings with walkways and green spaces. This approach encourages movement and collaboration between different research departments, breaking down traditional silos.
This video documents a major construction milestone for the ePositive Net Zero Project. It shows the successful placement of the second set of 6 meter tall rings for the 40 meter tall "Beacon," a complex engineering feat that brings our design to life.
About this collection
When we design a campus, we do not start with the aesthetic form; we start by mapping human circulation. Whether we are planning a slim atrium for a software office or a large-scale research campus, our focus is on creating physical nodes that naturally pull people together. You will not find decorative facades here, but structural elements that double as collaboration zones, engineered to be as efficient as they are enduring.
Architecture in the corporate and tech sector must move beyond the vanity of glass-and-steel boxes. A workspace is not a playroom or a hotel lobby; it is a tool for production, collaboration, and well-being. Our process begins with a deep dive into the 'volume and massing' of the site. We analyze solar paths and wind patterns, not just for sustainability certifications like LEED, but to create a naturally comfortable environment that reduces long-term operational costs.
Our Approach to Workplaces
- Collaboration Nodes: We reject the isolation of traditional cubicle layouts. In projects like our Pune software office, we designed a central atrium with a prominent staircase that forces human interaction. By cantilevering meeting rooms into these shared voids, we turn transition spaces into gathering points.
- Porous Ground Planes: We believe a campus should engage with its surroundings. Our designs prioritize the ground level as an urban plaza, integrating retail and landscaping to create a seamless transition between the private office and the public realm.
- High-Performance Engineering: We handle complex structural tasks, such as the large-span engineering required for net-positive energy campuses. We see 'sustainability' as basic common sense, integrating MEP and structural coordination early to ensure column-free workspaces that allow for flexible, future-proof layouts.
Whether designing a speculative office in Visakhapatnam or a research 'beacon' in Hyderabad, our goal is to provide a clean, logical, and robust foundation that allows a company’s culture to thrive without the distraction of unnecessary ornamentation.
Studio Chintala
We are a team of architects who believe in the power of logic and restraint. We don't just build offices; we engineer environments that help teams collaborate and innovate. If you want a workspace that is built to function rather than impress, we are the right partners for the project.
