Interior space designing for Evolutionary Systems Pvt. Ltd. – an Information technology multinational corporate on an eleventh floor of a commercial tower at Ahmedabad. It is an account of design explorations to evolve humane, interactive and eco friendly interiors within an Information Technology corporate office. Spatial organisation even within the singular open office organisation bring element of surprise through sequential unfolding of views by strategic placement of objects and spatial elements along the movement route at nodal positions from the entrance lounge. Ceiling modulations also help accentuate work zones from circulation. The workstations, while for functional convenience were polarised in their mutual proximity, they were as such not isolated by zoning but instead spread out all through the floor plate. To break the monotony of space condition and formality of work environment, the workstations are arranged in different ways and in even more varied finishes and formats, offering informality and choices of work situations. In addition to interactivity and environment management, design has consciously included a concern for patronising local craft in space making. Narrative art on two curved partition in Warli tradition depicts subtle nuances of communication along with human interaction with nature and traditions. Traditional jaali form from Sidi Siyad’s mosque - symbolic of Ahmedabad city’s identity is placed at the entrance.
