reD Office – reD Architects design their own creative oasis: A studio that inspires

A vibrant studio where design meets innovation, blending functionality with creative flair

Housed within the shell of a repurposed garment warehouse, the reD Office exudes an understated brilliance, where every element serves a purpose, and every corner sparks creativity. This isn’t just a workspace; it’s an evolving canvas where ideas are nurtured, and design experiments come to life.

Upon entering, you’re greeted by a meeting space that feels as alive as the garden it overlooks. One side opens up to lush greenery, while the other is framed by a vivid woven screen that invites color into the dialogue.

At its heart, a monolithic white marble table anchors the room, reflecting the square pendant light above. The light’s unique ability to filter through its four sides lends an ever-changing character to the space, an apt metaphor for the creative exchanges it hosts.

Moving further, a snug office corner is cleverly designed to maximize both space and elegance. The illusion of expansiveness is achieved through a sleek glass table, while the Corbusier scale—a timeless icon—has been meticulously customized to meet the specific needs of its occupant.

In contrast, the lounge is an informal haven, perfect for casual discussions or moments of quiet ideation. Its curated furniture, crafted by the talented artisans at Crafted, seamlessly blends comfort with a raw, tactile charm. This dual-purpose zone becomes a bridge between work and leisure, where ideas flow as naturally as conversation.

A coffee corner, perched with a view of the cityscape, offers a more introspective retreat. Here, amidst the urban hum, inspiration takes on a quieter, contemplative form, creating a sanctuary for solitary musings.

The conference room, atypical in every sense, is a space where ideas take flight under a flood of natural light. A sturdy metal table commands attention, and the absence of conventionality ensures the focus remains on innovation and dialogue.

Then there is a workspace that mirrors the personality of its creative inhabitant—a celebration of color and clever storage solutions. The centerpiece is a striking black slate table, supported by an old wrought iron railing, a piece that seamlessly marries the rustic with the functional.

Step outside, and you’ll find the courtyard oasis, a place where design meets indulgence. With the Mumbai skyline as its dramatic backdrop, this outdoor space transforms into an intimate venue for secret suppers or a testing ground for furniture experiments. It’s here that the boundaries between work and play blur most beautifully, embodying the ethos of the reD Office.

The reD Office is more than a studio—it’s a statement of design philosophy. By breathing new life into an old warehouse, it transforms the mundane into the extraordinary, creating a space where form, function, and creativity coexist in perfect harmony.
