Our client, one of the largest developers in Pune, was looking to make a striking impact for their brand new 300,000 sq ft commercial property headquarters in Pune, India’s 6th largest city. The architect, one of the most respected in India, had a vision to translate his client’s requirement for this signature project by using wood in an external application.
The architect was reassured by the dimensional stability, durability and aesthetics provided by RitikaaWood cladding products using Accoya.
Using wood of approximately 30km in length, the tongue & groove hidden fixing system with translucent coatings, has maintained its dimensions, lustre and colour fastness after exposure to the humid and highly temperate Pune weather.
This was one of the first few installations of RitikaaWood products using Accoya, so the architect and owner were making a bold statement of intent, not only for the corporate headquarters but also the use of such a material in the Indian tropical climate. RitikaaWood products were imaginatively used in conjunction with other materials for gate cladding, terrace beams, and wall cladding areas.
This has resulted in the building becoming the most well recognised commercial buildings in Pune, a city of 30,00,000, and it has also created a landmark in the upscale University Road locale.
