Indian studio Architecture Discipline has renovated an office in New Dehli to create an inward-facing headquarters for Rug Republic that is wrapped in a weathering-steel shell.

Created in response to the “hostile” local environment, the three-storey building was wrapped in a banded Corten-steel shell to protect it.

“It has been designed as a protective armour offering very little views of the outside, keeping the hostile and acrid environment away,” said Architecture Discipline founder Akshat Bhatt.

印度工作室Architecture Discipline改造了位於新德里的辦公室,為地毯共和國創建了一個向內的總部,總部被包裹在耐候鋼外殼中。

為響應“敵對”的當地環境而創建,這座三層樓高的建築被包裹在帶束縛的Corten鋼外殼中,以對其進行保護。

建築紀律創始人阿克沙特·巴特(Akshat Bhatt)表示:“它被設計成一種防護裝甲,幾乎看不到外面的景象,從而使敵對和惡劣的環境不受影響。”

The building has a rigid exterior, with its bands of Corten-steel cladding almost entirely enclosing the block.

Described by the studio as a “post-industrial aesthetic”, the building’s appearance was also designed to intrigue visitor’s to the headquarters.

該建築具有堅固的外觀,其Corten鋼包層帶幾乎完全封閉了該街區。

該工作室將其形容為“後工業美學”,其外觀還旨在吸引來訪者的總部。

“Instead of hiding under a veil of glass and granite, the design aims to make a post-industrial statement that would intrigue the visitor,” he told .

“The building is a reflection of the current time and creates a strong impression with the onlooker.”

他告訴記者:“該設計並非隱藏在玻璃和花崗岩的面紗下,而是旨在做出一種後工業宣言,以吸引參觀者。”

“這座建築反映了當前的時間,並給旁觀者留下了深刻的印象。”

In places, the cladding is broken by aperture-style openings that are covered in steel chains that serve as shade screens and prevent monkeys from entering.

On its ground level, the steel shell is interrupted by glass windows alongside the building’s entrance.

在某些地方,覆層被開孔樣式的開口破壞,這些開口被鋼鏈覆蓋,用作遮陽簾並防止猴子進入。

在地面上,鋼殼被建築物入口旁邊的玻璃窗打斷。

Inside, the building was renovated to create a warehouse-like aesthetic.

“It’s fascinating to take something forgotten and to give it new life; this is the century of recuperation,” Bhatt said.

“There is no space, no water, and no forests anymore for the continuous production of new things. So it makes sense to take something old and make it special.”

在內部,對建築物進行了翻修,以營造出倉庫般的美感。

巴特說:“採取一些被遺忘的東西並賦予它新的生命是令人著迷的;這是休養生息的世紀。”

“沒有空間,沒有水,也沒有森林來持續生產新東西。因此,把舊的東西變得特別有意義是有意義的。”

Its ground floor has temporary exhibition spaces and offices, while the upper two levels contain permanent exhibitions, product display spaces and private offices.

The interior has a minimal palette, employing raw materials and a simplistic, tonal colour scheme to create a neutral backdrop for the company’s rugs and furniture.

它的底樓有臨時展覽空間和辦公室,而上兩層則是永久展覽,產品展示空間和私人辦公室。

內部採用了最小的調色板,採用了原材料,並採用了簡單的色調配色方案,為公司的地毯和家具創造了中性的背景。

Walls were painted black and combined with fire brick flooring and rebar cages to create an unfinished, industrial look.

A helical, weathered-steel staircase occupies the corner of the building and was designed to be a counterpoint to the building’s mostly linear layout.

牆壁被塗成黑色,並與耐火磚地板和鋼筋籠結合在一起,形成了未完成的工業外觀。

螺旋形的風化鋼樓梯佔據了建築物的一角,旨在與建築物的大部分線性佈局相對。

A small terrace at the top of the building provides a bright open air space to admire the surrounding views.

On the ground floor, several shipping containers with chipboard interiors were designed to be used for impromptu meetings and employee breaks.

建築頂部的小露台提供明亮的露天空間,可欣賞周圍的景色。

在底樓,設計了幾個帶有刨花板內部的運輸容器,用於臨時會議和員工休息。
