Revamped, Yet Steadfast: An Update, Not a Transplant
Studio PKA Moves to a New 2,100 sq ft Workspace in South Mumbai's Creative Hub
Studio PKA, a renowned architecture firm based in Mumbai, is on the move. Principal architect Puran Kumar is on the hunt for a new workspace, and it's not just any ordinary space. The new Studio PKA will be situated near the bustling Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus in South Mumbai, at the heart of a vibrant creative and cultural ecosystem.
The new Studio PKA workspace will not be in the exact same location as the old one, but it will be close to the open maidans and surrounded by a variety of museums and galleries. This strategic location allows the studio to remain deeply connected to South Mumbai’s historical and artistic fabric, often referred to as the city’s “art district” or SoBo.
The decision to locate the new studio in South Mumbai was a strategic one. The area is known for its architectural heritage and contemporary art, providing a stimulating environment for design innovation. The studio's new home will be approximately 2,100 sq ft in size, offering ample space for the team to create and collaborate.
The strategic significance of Studio PKA’s location lies in its integration within this vibrant creative and cultural ecosystem. Positioned near Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus to the east, surrounded by museums and galleries to the south, and open maidans to the west, the studio benefits from immediate access to key cultural landmarks and public spaces that inspire creativity.
This proximity cultivates collaboration opportunities, enhances visibility within the local design community, and provides a stimulating environment for the firm's architectural work. The new Studio PKA workspace is strategically located in the heart of a creative and cultural ecosystem, reinforcing the studio’s identity and embedding it in one of Mumbai’s most dynamic artistic quarters.
As Studio PKA embarks on this new chapter, it does so with a renewed commitment to pushing the boundaries of design and architecture, all while remaining deeply rooted in the rich cultural tapestry of South Mumbai.
The new Studio PKA workspace, located in the creative hub of South Mumbai, will not only provide an inspiring environment for design innovation but also foster collaborations with other creatives due to its proximity to museums and galleries. With its transformation into a larger 2,100 sq ft space, Studio PKA aims to elevate their lifestyle and home-and-garden project visions, further entwining the studio within the vibrant artistic fabric of South Mumbai.
