Personal Banking Branch (PBB) of SBI,Breach Candy
M SQUARE Design Studio was assigned to design the interiors for the first ever Personal banking branch in Mumbai, Maharashtra. The bank is spread over an area of 1200 square feet carpet area, and is located in one of the plush areas of Mumbai i.e Breach Candy. Since the customer expectancy of the branch was going to be the well to do section of the society and also the location, the ambiance for the bank was expected to have a corporate look and feel.
The design studio achieved this challenge by working with a combination of subtle and dark colors in a color scheme of white, chrome yellow and dark brown. Functional spaces include branch manager’s cabin, reception, waiting lounge, pantry, biometric system for restrooms, record room, UPS/Server room, E-lobby etc. To enhance the design further, carved MDF strips were used on the partitions of SWOs (single window operation).The space also boasts of a coffee vending machine and a library for the customers. The aesthetics of the space were further taken care with the help of modern furniture, as evident with the amazing form of the chairs, show pieces etc handpicked by the architects.
The design was also nominated by Praxis Media and National Chamber of Commerce.

Hotel Ram Ratan

HOTEL RAM RATAN SHAMIANA
A TEMPORARY STRUCTURE DESIGN TO FIT IN A FINE DINNING RESTAURANT.
The owners of Ram Ratan Shamiana was looking forward to create a hotel building which is temporary in nature and can be fully dismantled, but which doesn't look like one.
It was obvious to design a structure made up of steel sections which serves the basic criterion of a temporary structure. Water proof wooden panels were added to act as walls & wooden battens which are used in ship building were used to make the structure water resistant. Melamine polish was used for the final finish on battens.
Designed on a plot of area of 5500 sq.ft the approach towards designing this hotel was to create a responsive and exclusive fine dine experience for the users.
The overall experience of the design was to create a rugged look outside but a soothing dinning experience inside. A machan restaurant to enjoy the openness & natural environment during pleasant weathers, where as non- air conditioned & conditioned spaces to enjoy meals in a very cosy atmosphere. A small landscaped garden for children, served the cherry on the top.
Unpredictable briefs create awesome special experience. This design serves the same.
