Ahmedabad is seeing a rising trend for good office real estate assets, due to rapid employment generation and eminent possibility of the first REIT listings. With increasing traffic woes, distance is becoming an avid concern for businesses. When a company chooses to pick up a good office location an hour away, it sees a lot of attrition. So, a decision was made to provide a world-class business center in the city itself.
Thought Process
One of the biggest advantages of World Center is its strategic location i.e. on Sabarmati Riverfront, an upcoming business district in the center of the city. It also holds its proximity to Airport, Metro and business class hotels making it a hot-spot for business houses to station their offices in an International standard business center.
The focus is always on the quality of development and growth by innovation. The next priority is to minimise the impact on the environment, and, reduce the wastage by encouraging eco-friendly initiatives. In fact, World Center is a Green initiative by Savani Group, and it is IGBC Platinum rated first Green Building in Gujarat preserving natural reserves and substantial cost savings.
The imperative effect
The project team’s values are the foundation to their projects. The same has also helped them earn the most accolades till date and they strive to keep improving for best. The other partners ADS Architect, JLL, Setu, Infra, PDA Associate, Manisha Construction, Savani Infracon LLP on board also bring along the same values to accomplish the mission.

Mentation
The client believes in designing and creating lifestyle products rather than boxed spaces. Winston Churchill has also said, “We shape our buildings; thereafter they shape us.”
For them, the architectural brief for World Center was of utmost importance, as it plays a vital role in documenting the dream project’s outcome and deliverables. It was clearly one of the ambitious projects with every inch of space designed to give a feel of spaciousness. The architects were briefed to inculcate premium executive’s minuscule needs of work life and ensure the ease, comfort and functional abilities in working space.
Overcoming Challenges
Being in business for so many years and having all types of seasons, the team was prepared for challenges in this project, too. The dream project, World Center, had different sets of challenges especially working from the center of the city with almost no working space.
It was decided to put the labor and material resources in nearby residential bungalows to avoid disturbance on the functional roads. Also, due to the crowd in weekdays, the team used to cast raft during weekends. Having said, all the challenges were overcome in the most efficient way ensuring safety and security for all those involved. The journey of how it was built is also important to ensure everyone involved in the making is happy to give in their best to the vision.
Using Steel
Steel is the world’s most trusted construction material with great flexibility and versatility which makes it easier for designers, developers, and architects to turn their visions into reality. Steel structures are strong, sustainable, and of course, it is 100 per cent recyclable.
There are exciting newer trends in the industry that will likely impact the steel market in a positive way owing to technology and connectivity Savani Group always considers emerging trends into account, as they continue to develop quality lifestyle assets and it is a belief that steel’s longevity, versatility and sustainability will only lead to more from our community to use in more projects, not less. The client is glad to be the leaders in bringing in newer trends in Commercial Reality for the Gujarati businessmen community. For World Centre 3, steel was acquired from one of the best and finest steel providers who hold a remarkable place in the market.

World Center 3 will mark a new horizon in the commercial realty sector of Gujarat. With its presence in the upcoming Central business development zone of Ahmedabad, it will emerge as a landmark in the new downtown of Ahmedabad in the scenic riverfront.
