At 42MM Architecture, geometry is not merely a design language: it’s a medium through
which collaboration finds both physical and visual expression. Every line, form, and
proportion is conceived to encourage dialogue between people, spaces, and the architecture
itself.

Geometry as a Framework for Physical Collaboration
In the built form, geometry becomes a catalyst for interaction. Transitional volumes are
designed not just as connective elements, but as active zones of exchange. Receding the
building backwards creates stepped terraces that act as host spaces for social interaction.
Meetings are not just confined to conference tables; they extend over coffee and lounge.
Every intersection, joint, and edge is resolved to maintain spatial continuity while reinforcing
the rhythm of the built envelope.

What begins as spatial organization evolves into a visual framework; where proportion,
alignment, and transparency guide perception as much as they guide movement.
Geometry as a Language of Visual Collaboration

Visually, geometry defines how spaces communicate with one another. Layered planes,
intersecting volumes, and transparent partitions create sightlines that foster openness while
maintaining clarity of function. Atrium’s double heights create a volume that visually
connects multiple spaces together. It is more about a collective presence rather than an
individual dialogue. A visual connect that connects you to a larger community.
It enables a visual and physical coherence that transforms the work environment into a
network of connected experiences; where collaboration is both facilitated and spatially
inscribed.
Geometry here is not ornamental – it is the structural and perceptual foundation of interaction.
The resultant architecture is one of balance between openness and definition, between visual
clarity and physical engagement; where geometry becomes the enduring medium of
collective work, dialogue, and design expression.

Oorjaa, renowned for its commitment to handcrafted design and material innovation, introduces its latest creation—the Fantastic Fungi Lamp, a striking lighting piece that celebrates the quiet geometry and organic intelligence of nature. Inspired by the mesmerizing architecture of mushrooms, this sculptural lamp translates their delicate contours into a warm, luminous presence for contemporary interiors.

The Fantastic Fungi Lamp captivates with its interplay of form, texture, and light. Crafted from handmade banana fibre paper and reclaimed lantana wood, it features layered curves, hidden folds, and an earthy elegance reminiscent of forest fungi. Its rich, dark-toned external structure contrasts beautifully with the soft amber glow filtering through organically shaped banana fibre accents. The materials heighten the lamp’s tactile appeal—banana fibre paper offers featherlight, rippled translucence, while lantana wood adds depth, grounding, and natural variation.

Measuring 40 × 40 × 100 cm and illuminated by a 12-watt LED strip, the lamp stands as both a functional lighting piece and a sculptural art object. Its cocoon-like silhouette and the unexpected fissures of glowing paper set it apart from conventional lighting, making it an expressive, statement-making addition to curated spaces.

Rooted in Oorjaa’s sustainability-driven ethos, the Fantastic Fungi Lamp champions responsible craftsmanship through the use of reclaimed and biodegradable materials, energy-efficient lighting, and hand-built processes with minimal environmental impact. Thoughtfully designed for versatile placement, it works beautifully as a pendant light in living rooms, lounges, and double-height spaces, or as a standalone accent in entryways, reading nooks, and hospitality environments.

With its evocative form and mindful construction, the Fantastic Fungi Lamp becomes more than a source of illumination—it is a conversation piece that brings nature’s quiet strength indoors, embodying Oorjaa’s belief in design that is honest, ecological, and artfully crafted.
