MUMBAI: Mudra Group makes another ‘big move’, literally, this month. Earlier this year, when Mudra turned 30, the Group promised it was entering an era of change. In its 30th year, the Group has already implemented a number of changes, an important one being the brand identity change in September. And now comes the official opening of Mudra House.

Mudra House, an eight-story building is home to over 450 Mudraites across Mumbai, under one roof. This the agency says further enhances its philosophy of creative collaboration across units.

Mudra House is situated opposite the Grand Hyatt in Mumbai. The building has 2 levels of basement valet parking with a capacity of 120 cars. These parking areas have also been provided with electrical points to provide for recharging battery operated cars in the future.

Though a modern building, the interiors of Mudra House follow a contemporary-traditional route. As soon as one enters the lobby, one is greeted with a detailed depiction of life today in traditional ‘Warli’. This style of art appears through each of the floors in
different forms. The Warli art on each floor/room expresses the ambience in that particular space.

In the work space, the simple triangle-and-dots figures vividly capture daily activities at the work-stations. The meeting and conference rooms on each floor are named after popular community places, across the country - Jantar Mantar, College Street, Chor Bazaar, Ganga Ghaat, Howrah Bridge

and Dhobi Ghaat, the Warli form incorporated here, depicts the ambience in the respective rooms. Warli style of art is also seen in the upholstery, signages and floor coverings on every floor. The art infuses the spirit of community through-out the building.

Mudra House has technology that includes 1 gigabit IP Telephony, full blown Unified Communications (UC), Video Conferencing (VC), Audio Visual (AV) equipments, access control system, CCTV and Intelligent Building Management System (IBMS), where the control system is a computerized, intelligent network of electronics, designed to monitor and control the mechanical and lighting systems of the building. Apart from this, the Mudra Group has implemented various energy conservation features.

Commenting on the inauguration, Mudra Group Group CEO, MD Madhukar Kamath said, “It is a proud milestone for us. Mudra House is not just our HQ, it is a home for over 450 Mudraites in Mumbai, an exciting work-place bustling with warmth, creative energy and innovative ideas. A perfect launching platform for the next Decade of growth through Inventive Brand Solutions for our clients.”
