Virtual and augmented reality has been widely popular in entertainment, including V.R. consoles like PlayStation VR and A.R. games like Pokemon Go, but their use has lagged in commercial real estate.

Only recently have developers, architects, brokers and builders started to use the technologies as a way to save money and time in two aspects of large commercial real estate projects: leasing and construction.

Full-scale adoption is still most likely years away, especially in geography like India, but the interest in commercial uses for the technology is rising.

As this trend catches up in commercial workspace design industry, gear up to tour your office before it’s built with augmented and virtual reality.

Background – BigBasket is one of the fastest growing online grocery stores. They wanted to consolidate their 5 offices into one big one.

Challenges – Space for the designing was 45k sq ft. while we had to accommodate 426 employees. In addition to adding other requirements like boardrooms, meeting rooms, nap rooms, and gym.

Thumb rule for designing workspaces is 100sq ft. per person, Hidecor had only 3k to design all the other requirements. All this was to be done in 90 days!

Solution – An amalgamation of technology, planning, and designing led to a design with 45-degree workstation areas. This was implemented such that it brings in more space.

At Hidecor, we act on a commitment to sustainable design – from responsibly sourcing materials to practising clean manufacturing processes that minimize waste and conserve natural resources; Keeping up to this Carbon Neutral Floors™ by Interface flooring were used for bigbasket.

We were able to expedite the designing of this vast space and completed in 76 days!
