Final Submission
Clients: Ratan Tata and Carlos Slim
Clients: Ratan Tata and Carlos Slim
Ratan Tata's office is simply adorned, with a humble layout to the desk. Situated at a distance from the rest of the structure, Tata's office reflects his rise to power without compromising of his humanity. The screen allows views to the rest of the structure, but also allows privacy.
The glass walkway joining Tata's office to the business/meeting room reflects his transparent method of business, rather than revealing or glorifying the user.
At its connection, the glass walkway is supported and integrated with the main structure. Along with Tata's personal elevator, this integration reflects his respect for the consumer, and their mutual regard.
The 'landscape' of the meeting point. The two entrepreneurs are seperated from the consumers by their wealth and social position. However, the consumer is the basis of their power, and the landscape swoops up through the dividing glass floor to create the place of interaction and business, the table/s.
Carlos Slim's office is on a more intimidating scale. His desk, and personal lift are centred, backed by a grid/screen revealing the main structure on one side (and allowing views from the meeting room of the gargantuan office), and by a vast window on the other which reveals the world at his feet, and frames Carlos at his desk.
