The Integrated Production Facility for Organic India in Lucknow is a sprawling 1,50,000 sq. ft. campus designed to support the production, processing, and administrative functions for the holistic wellness brand.
Set amid barley fields, the development is characterized by expansive open spaces, a minimalist brick-and-concrete built envelope, and a focus on community and introspection.
The campus stands exemplar of sustainable development through its extensive use of local as well as recycled materials, passive cooling strategies, and on-site resource management – a set of interventions that has won the development 93 points in its LEED assessment, the highest in the country for a production facility.
The architectural and planning intent of the campus – devised by Studio Lotus – prioritizes the physical and psychological wellbeing of the campus’s occupants above all else – creating a complex that will now serve as an architectural template for all future properties for the company.
