The Nicholas Piramal Research Centre, spread across an area of 1,20,000 sqft, was set to be designed in an existing yarn manufacturing unit, dating back to the 60's.
The design process commenced with the zoning of lab versus the non lab areas, where the requirements for each laboratory - which being specific and unique, largely defined the clusters, within the overall master plan. The non- lab areas were mostly placed at the front corner, limiting the infiltration of visitors within the functional areas.
