HP Campus Commercial Block addition - Bangalore (India)

The Client asked us to elaborate a fasibility study to see in which way his two existing plots (5 acres and 20 acres) could be filled up with new buildings according to the urban bye laws in Bangalore.

Our analysis came to the conclusion to place an office building with a total number of 10 floors on the 5 acres plot, of which the upper eight floors are for office use. Due to the parking norms, ground floor and first floor are stilt levels for parking, additional to the 3 levels of basement parking.

Instead of lining up the core longitudinally throughout the floor plate, we decided to put it over the cross section so that at the two lower floors there is an optimised space for parking on the one side of the core, while the other side works as entrance lobby and art space.
