“Earthitects Studio” design started with a vision to create an environment that pushes the boundaries of physical space and fuels the seamless flow of thoughts and ideas. A brand’s workspace serves as its physical embodiment, and the Earthitects workspace perfectly encapsulates its architectural essence of creating & consistently innovating the way we live, a concept that allows us to experience ‘living to the fullest’
Revitalizing Resources: Reimagining Sustainability
It all started with the idea of reusing the materials that we had in the existing building,” says George E Ramapuram. The clearing out of the existing building gave the end of life for various materials such as particle boards, MS frames, and carpets, but it also gave these materials a second life.
Our 3050 square feet space was converted into a sustainable office space using wooden joineries, raw unsized branches for lighting, white concrete for floors, Textured cement plasters for cascading patterns on the wall, faux leather for table upholstery, and flexi ply for wooden ceiling beams. By using all organic materials, we have created an exquisite design that enhances the space’s earthy ambience.
In monolithic design, A skirting that seamlessly binds floor and wall, blending harmoniously optimizing space and creating an open and expansive feel while establishing the new standard for office spaces. The corners of the floor and wall are carefully crafted with a skirting that binds the floor and wall together with its form. Standing at the door, one can notice the wall flowing onto the floor, which forms also giving rise to the table with its beautiful curves. The floor has a contrasting, artistic material band of organic shape directing one’s eye across the expanse of space. Crafted from natural materials with an emphasis on environmental sustainability, every detail in the workspace is meticulously customized for the user.
