FARO

This infographic showing various carbon footprints got a lot of love, and along with it came some constructive feedback from our peer group too.
We’ve made a few updates, refined certain parts, and are happy to be reposting the revised version here!

The process behind Faro prioritised safety, longevity, low CO₂ emissions, reduced waste production, and interiors that support healthy urban living through material honesty and ecological responsibility.

Breathable materials are used across the interiors, minimising synthetic finishes and creating safer environments.

Project 3/20_24
Nagapattinam Collector’s camp office renovation

In 2023, we were called to Nagapattinam, to look at the camp office and do minimal renovation to make the large but compressed spaces more liveable. We were in awe with the port authority building, more than 100 yrs old, metamorphed into district collector’s residence and emergency camp office. (Think Tsunami and Covid 19). Working with PWD, we felt would be tricky. But the Assistant Engineer and team turned out to be warm and enthusiastic about the proposal. In 2024, with the tenure change, we found ourselves back at the premises, with a more ambitious and sensitive collector, wanting to entirely conserve and renovate this heritage building into a administrative officer’s residence and office closest to the original architectural character. The presentation shows the scale, material, detail and the zeal with which we have been working on this project since August 2024.
