MD Cabin
The primary focus of the entire design was to keep on the elegance and the simplicity of the area. “We tried to successfully work upon the element and make the best use of incorporating the natural light and efficiently bringing out that on the space, hence the materials, the colors, the lights, and all other interior aspects that brought out space as it turned out,” said the design team.
Key Areas
The key areas of design focus: reception & waiting area, 3 separate cabins specifically for meetings divided by glass partition, and a workstation. The client had the simplest requirement yet a tough one stating: ‘SPACE’ that not catches the client’s attention but also creates efficiency in the workspace.
Conference Room
Reception & Waiting area
“I always believe the more use of white in the space the wider it makes the space look. Installed a bronze mirror panel behind the reception making it the highlighting wall but at the same time, these are storages and are opening at the passage side,” said Ar Puneet Pagariya.
Reception and Waiting Area
Moving towards the wall panelling, right beside the reception area is the veneer panel and marble cladding hence breaking the white and adding another color to this space.
Passage Area
The Shades of Grey in The Cabin 1
Coming to Cabin 1, the headwall or the back wall has been coated with grey color, and to assure that the wall doesn’t look dull added a pattern of wooden battens, thus adding an aesthetic look. and which is also the hidden door for the attached toilet. Complementing the furniture, the satavario marble table has been made accordingly as grey and has used a combination of grey shutters and veneer over the top and dark wooden flooring.
“To add that pop and spark of color to the cabin we have added that in furniture with the bright colored sofa, making the interior as subtle as needed and balancing with the elements, and not making it look boring,” quoted Ar Ruchi Pagariya.

Peach-Hued Cabin 2
Connecting Cabin 1 and Cabin 2 Now moving to cabin 2, the headwall has been coated with the pleasant peach colour with geometrical patterns to give subtle look and which is also a secret door for cabin 1, complementing the furniture, classic beige marble top table added with grey shutter and veneer top side storage.
Cabin 2
The ceiling is also eye-catching as a geometrical pattern added to the ceiling in pleasant peach color.
Senior and Junior WorkStation
Now Moving ahead to senior and junior workstations, it has been given a very subtle look by using a veneer panel with a highlighting pattern, and a white marble tabletop has been installed.
Senior Work Station
Played with lines in space hence vertical lines in the elevation and horizontal linear niche for indirect lighting in the storage unit. The furniture here used is in tones of beige and white color, the walls are more in the neutral story.
Junior Work Station
Therefore ensuring the balance in the space. The partition between the cabins and workstation has been done using sandwich opaque glass and wooden framing resolving the issues of visibility and privacy at the same time.
