Golden Hour: A Place for Rejuvenation

Golden Hour, a rejuvenation center designed for activities like yoga, meditation, a human library, and informal group gatherings, occupies 340 sq. meters near the BioNEST building by BV Doshi. The unique feature lies in three pairs of moving walls that rotate and dynamically alter the space's character. With a spacious volume underneath and a skylight above, unified materials throughout, and panoramic views with playful light, it creates a profoundly soothing and relaxing ambiance. The resultant spaces aim at helping one find calm in the chaos of day to day life.
