The idea behind constructing this tower is to display great variety, both structural and aesthetical, each developing gradually and coherently out of prior traditions and experience of ancient Iran and portraying the past glory through non-judgemental and creative vision.

This modern and luxurious residential tower is based on the ancient Achaemenian design and style. With more than 200 highly skilled artisans at work, for the first time Persian architectural elements have been used to showcase the rich Persian art and architecture through various dynastic rules.

Iranian marble, glazed mosaic, colours depicting Persian architecture, motifs and panels are used in the construction of this 21 storey residential tower. Some of the design elements used to aesthetically enhance and visually portray the Iranian culture are Apadana palace fluited (to scale)columns with twin bull's head, a lion devouring the bull signifying seasonal change - the Nowruz festival, mythological creature - the human headed winged bull at the entrance to King Cyrus's palace, wine goblet from Susa called 'the susa cup', the entrance stairs of the building replicates the eastern stairs of the Apadana at Persepolis showing procession of people bringing tribute to King Darius.

The building comes alive to display richness in colour, character and creativity, especially when viewed at night.

This project was of special importance and Jimmy spared no energy to recreate the magical experience.

Keeping its architectural structure intact, Italian marble was used for the flooring in the inner sanctum, to replace the existing one, whilst old cornices and mouldings that had broken off from the ceiling were copied and refitted. The doors and windows, originally covered with layers of oil paint - were stripped, and the original wood was touched upon, varnished and exposed with polyurethane coatings. Old partitions which were haphazardly fitted and had been causing smoke from the fire to remain trapped inside - were removed and a proper ventilation system created. The lighting was specifically designed keeping the original structure intact, a ceiling suspended diffused light fitting was designed, as well as a new lighting grid worked out.

The restoration of this 6,500 square foot fire temple was completed in a record two months, with a stunning Zen-like landscaped garden laid in the compound outside, and on the lines of the Swaminarayan temple in London. This structure thus displays authenticity, which is symbolic of the Parsee community itself.

The challenge was to extend those perceptions to every point of contact with its customers through its retail outlets, and to weave the brand through the marketing strategy, its core products, its customer service and to create a holistic brand 'Bajaj' experience for the consumer.

The Bajaj Pro-biking outlets were conceptualized using space as a medium of communicating the brand and targeted to the customers who are passionate about the 'dream machines', and for whom speed is a way of life. The retail environment designed by us has become a living manifestation of the 'Bajaj' brand strength.

He created the ambience that choreographed a deeper, more resonant experience of the brand, where the customer gets completely immersed in the dynamic displays and interactive environment of taking reality ride on the dream machines, feeling the power at its peak.
