Any construct, be it interiors or architecture
is finally a product. This needs to be delivered at expected
quality standards, within specified time frame and at a budget.
The reality of construction management and quality of contracting
agencies leaves a lot desired. Many of our clients now insist
that we as designers take singular responsibility for the
design as well as delivery of the project. Through design-build,
we assume the role of master builders and ethically and contractually
answer for our creations in totality. We enjoy the flexibility,
control and deeper satisfaction that these projects bring.
'Starwood Capital' was setting
up their first office in India and gave us the mandate to
design and build it. We delivered within an onsite construction
schedule of 22 days, beating the design and construction quality
standards of their overseas facilities.
