RMZ Nexity | DP Architects | World Design Awards 2025

DP Architects: Winner of World Design Awards 2025. RMZ Nexity, a LEED Gold and WELL Certified development, is located within Hi-Tech Knowledge City. Its proximity to the Central Business District makes it one of the most well-placed campuses in Hyderabad, India. Intended as an iconic landmark within the city’s skyline, three 22-storey high-rise towers were conceptualised in response to its site and evolving business trends.

Community and connectivity form the central design themes of the public areas. Featuring a three-sided frontage and a southeast-facing lakeview, the design maximises natural views while ensuring excellent road access that ensures convenient circulation and drop-offs. The integration of green and pedestrian-friendly spaces, such as courtyards and boulevards, creates a serene atmosphere that invites end-users to dwell, contributing to their sense of wellbeing.

To encourage social interactions, al-fresco dining and open-air theatre add vibrancy and help transform workplace culture. Biophilic elements such as water features, designed for evaporative cooling, and sculptured gardens set within its gateway-shaped striking façade enhance the arrival experience, elevating the development’s identity. The building design leverages prevailing winds to promote natural ventilation, enhancing thermal comfort indoors and outdoors.

The office spaces located on the upper floors, raised above the vibrant podium level, are designated as formal work environments. The central core enables the building envelope to open up, maximising natural light and framing panoramic views.

Articulated vertical sun-shading elements, the design grounds itself in energy-efficient strategies. The design intent behind the building aligns with its function-visually dramatic yet rooted in environmentally-conscious philosophy. The Loft, an iconic building located at the northern end of the campus, offers a new and unique typology to its development. Envisioned to showcase the vibrancy and sophistication of contemporary Hyderabad. It offers various social experiences ranging from dining and retail, health and fitness to cultural and artistic spaces, creating a dynamic atmosphere for the community.
