In 2022 we were approached by My Home Group, to develop a design layout for a world class film studio complex in Hyderabad, India. The site included six film studio soundstages and related amenities covering, green rooms, workshops, canteens, food courts, an event arena and deluxe villas.

Given the scale of this project we sought the best expertise from around the globe to assist:

Croga Studio Builds leading on Studio Planning, Postproduction Areas and Studio Adjacencies

Chetwoods for Architecture, Master planning and Interior design

Meinhardt for Project Management, Civil, Structural, MEP Engineering and Façade/Façade Access

Veneklasen Associates for acoustics, AV and IT / Security

Working collaboratively we provided the client with a proposal that exceeded their expectations in all aspects of the design, a huge success for everyone at the time.

Our designs focussed on the flexibility and functionality of the film space, phased expansion, green building concepts to ameliorate the local climate, considerations around access and services, noise mitigation and location planning within the wider land profile.

Within the masterplan process we focussed heavily on creating a space that could facilitate a seamless facility to shoot in. Each of the design aspects reflected the importance placed on staff, performer, and visitor wellbeing to produce one cohesive media ecosystem.
