Nadeem Ul Hasan and Associates, has designed a head office building of a Pharmaceutical Company. The client produces life saving drugs for ailments such as Cancer & Hepatitis ‘C’. NUHA developed an intriguing concept for the building which echo the life,
‘Water is the source and plants are expression of life’
The building emerges out of water (source of life), and plants gushing out of the building in a manner that they are fused with the masses. The building is finished with exposed concrete (truth) & use of divine color ‘white’ says it all.
Two amalgamated masses in the design symbolize the joint venture of a Pakistani company with a foreign one. The building is on a shallow pool to combat hot weather. Tilted main mass is to manage the southern solar path.
