KNS Securities Offices – Ahmedabad
Squelette Design’s KNS Securities offices in Ahmedabad masterfully blends contemporary minimalism with subtle symbolism, creating a dynamic workspace that reflects the fluidity of financial data through thoughtful materials and design.
A Contemporary Workspace Rooted in Subtle Symbolism
Spread across 4000 sq ft, this office was designed for a company deeply immersed in the dynamic world of the stock market. The brief called for a space that would reflect the sharp precision and constant flux of financial data, while still feeling sophisticated, minimal, and grounded.
The design narrative emerged from a careful layering of materials and geometries, echoing the analytical world the company operates in. The palette is rooted in calming neutrals—soft greys, warm taupes, and muted whites—that create a sense of quietude and balance. To prevent the space from feeling too restrained, pockets of color were infused into the surfaces, allowing art and materiality to take center stage.
Central to the spatial planning was the seamless flow of natural light. The layout was orchestrated to open up spaces to daylight, enhancing clarity, well-being, and overall spatial quality.
One of the key highlights of the project is the reception table, a sculptural element inspired by the undulating rhythm of market graphs. Crafted in fluted granite, it is both functional and emblematic—a physical manifestation of the company’s core identity. This approach to abstraction continues throughout the interiors, where subtle cues from bar charts, graphs, and data connections are interpreted through textures, joinery details, and surface treatments.
Rather than relying on literal motifs, the design leans into abstraction—allowing the essence of data visualization to guide the spatial grammar in an understated manner. Bold artworks that echo financial themes punctuate the space, adding personality and relevance without overwhelming the architecture.
The result is a minimal, contemporary office that feels quietly dynamic—where functionality meets finesse, and symbolism is woven seamlessly into material and form.
