The naturally-lit Punjab Kesari headquarters…

The construction of the Punjab Kesari headquarters, sprawled over 18,000 square meters in Delhi NCR, is under process. Studio Symbiosis Architects is responsible for the design of the project. Designed as a fusion of traditional Indian architecture and contemporary office space, the main objective of the project is to reduce heat gain and optimize facade opening ratio, ensuing no artificial lighting is required on a typical day. With this in mind, the design centers on an animated facade, which features a variation of opening ratios based on orientation, and that same time it reflects Indian culture, through its resemblance to the traditional jaali screen pattern. Punjab Kesari Headquarters was commissioned in 2014, and began construction in August 2015. The project is set to open in January 2017.
