The way the courtyard sits capturing the shadows along the day is the best part of the design
Stepping into we3 architects as a recent graduate felt like a creative hub where design dreams takes shape. The space is a visual feast where conceptual sketches, designs and renderings adorn the walls of the office. The pin up board helps in nurturing the young minds with the different concepts, ideology and creative approach to each individual designs….!
I personally admire how the spaces are designed and how well they are interconnected creating this office a very interactive space.
The sleek and well-equipped workstation has a visual connection of both the exterior and interior space allowing more interaction between the users and the space. As a fresher I found this place where you not only learn the technical skills of architecture but also develop a sense of belonging to a creative community.
A
work place that feels like home
