English description provided by the architects.
The Primus is a nine-level, climate-responsive office building in Jaipur, India, composed of a series of capsule-shaped modules stacked vertically to create a breathable and environmentally conscious workspace.
Located adjacent to Jaipur Airport, the project was subject to a strict height restriction of 30 metres. To meet the client's requirements, the building accommodates eight offices on each floor, with unit sizes ranging from 60 sqm to 125 sqm.
The structural design provides complete flexibility, allowing individual offices to be combined into larger workspaces if needed.
Each office features large sliding glass openings that connect to sheltered capsule-shaped planter spaces wrapped with vertical aluminium screens.
These landscaped buffers introduce greenery into the workplace while reducing solar heat gain and mitigating noise from the adjacent arterial road and airport activity.
The project occupies a site area of 1,735.88 sqm and delivers a built-up area of 9,475 sqm. Given the development constraints and height limitations, a building footprint of 1,116 sqm was necessary, leaving no opportunity for ground-level gardens.
To compensate, planter terraces encircle every floor, complemented by a landscaped rooftop garden that provides valuable outdoor spaces for occupants.
Designed as a breathable workplace, The Primus integrates passive environmental strategies to enhance occupant comfort while reducing operational energy demand.
In Jaipur's harsh climate, where temperatures exceed 40°C for nearly eight months each year, the building responds directly to its context through shading, natural ventilation, and integrated greenery.
By combining flexibility, climate responsiveness, and biophilic design, The Primus creates a healthier work environment while significantly reducing its lifecycle carbon footprint, establishing a benchmark for sustainable commercial architecture in hot climatic regions.
