Pillai HOC College of Architecture Architectural Design Brief - Sem -06 ; Academic Year 2022-23 601- THE BUSINESS PLAN ‘THE BUSINESS PLAN ‘The Indian workspace is undergoing dramatic changes with Indian millennials spending the most amount of time in their offices compared to their global peers, working an average of 52 hours per week! Emergence of many new “start-ups, affordability, distance and time for travel- are some of the other factors that are crying out for a change in the way we look at and design our work spaces. Flexibility, need-based space requirement, dynamic spaces that are inspiring both during the day and night, spaces that allow for collaboration — these are some of the ingredients that would make for an apt office space today. ‘Aim of the Studio: ‘To design a suitable working environment, a new generation architectural solution for a multicultural, multilingual and a multigenerational workforce. Objective: ‘© To observe and analyse the types of new generation workspace, users and thelr work culture with respect to business philosophy. ‘* To understand the traditional workspace, their advantages and disadvantages that can be taken in consideration to design. ‘® To plan and design spaces that would aid work and work space interactions perform in much better synergy and develop a better working space. ® Tolearn and analyse advanced services, modern building techniques, integrate them from the initial stage of design. Analyse and resolve the building regulations, implement them to the design. Learn advanced parking layouts, services and techniques related to the same. Phases of the studio: Step 1: BUSINESS AS USUAL Explore work spaces across the world for better design choices Since the dawn of the white-collar age, office prototypes have been a habitual dilemma, There has been a historical shift in values and lifestyles and hence a shift in workplace environments over the last decade. With people spending more and more time in their workplace (wherever that may be), the modern workplace has become flexible and human-centric. While companies like Google and Facebook are revolutionizing the way office buildings and workplaces are conceived, some also believe traditional workstations maintain employees’ attention spans, Productivity, and provide a clear schism to separate work from leisure. Are the days of workspaces being limited to a cubicle and meetings to a conference room over?

Explore different scales and types of workspaces like startups, accelerators, incubators, coworking spaces etc. with respect to business philosophy Cities and buildings are changing in tandem with work and work styles. Significant factors, including a younger workforce and innovation-driven nature of business, mean that building typologies are being challenged both in form and provision. The lines are blurring between an office and a home. The revolution that started changing the workplace layout in the early 1990s has spread now to buildings and campuses. Instead of businesses owning or occupying large office buildings, more companies are shifting towards shared work centres and self-sustaining vertical work towns.

STEP 5: GET DOWN TO BUSINESS The workplace is evolving faster than ever before, and we must pioneer the new office design movement. A one-size-fits-all workplace does not do justice to the multicultural, multilingual, and multigenerational workforce. Old ways are being set aside, and new-age solutions are being criticized. The challenge is to program and reinvent our offices into a modern workspace that is inclusive and considers the various parameters which make up the human construct. We must question the current archetype of the office building and work environment. Shall we break out of the box? What is the box in the first place? Now that we have understood what offices have looked like in the past, the kinds of offices, the| user and his needs, it’s time to get down to business! ‘There shall be two aspects to the design solution: 1.
