A section of the focal collage wall moving into the corporate section is staunchly embedded with a collection of e-waste and discarded furniture, that have been pieced together to reimagine it as a haptic jigsaw. The core intention was to ensure that the waste in its originally dishevelled form now assumes the aura of a curated artistic sculpture, wherein each object has been carefully made a constituent element in the larger picture, with some elements that can be functionally utilised .The furniture here was refurbished with new fabric which sports dapper Gingham checks and pinstripes. The high-back chairs specifically seem to have gotten Barney Stinson’s memo and are ‘suited up’ to impress!

It’s always Christmas and a jolly time for merriment all year round at this next table! A brass-finished metal signage arch reaches across the length of the table, spelling out the word ‘Christmas’ as dainty fairy lights encase the calligraphy precariously. The base of the table has been created using discarded plywood and the chairs have been reupholstered in custom Alice In Wonderland-inspired prints that boast of rabbits, antelopes and owls decked up to grace a stately reception in town with scrap mild steel armrests shaped into form.

The artist’s section has taken a renewed approach towards upcycling abandoned couches that dotted the roadsides in the city. They have been painted in a distressed finish and embellished with paintbrushes over which portraits of ever so posh damsels have been painted by Artist Kamesh Bhagatji. The table here has been composed of old paint barrels which were coupled with stray bits of mesh and rope to be finally adorned by graffiti art created by Artist Shunnal Ligade.

A glimpse to the belle of the ball in the Christmas section , the Water Closet seat. The base was made utilising a discarded metal drain cover upon which a WC fitting found on site was lodged. Various paraphernalia from the donation drive has been tactfully assembled to embellish the same. It’s the best seat in the house in our opinion and truly from where we believe the best ideas are conceived too!

The visual at the corner end is one straight out of a 60s Americano film, especially the ones in which the protagonist travels down long expressways with no refuge in sight. Suddenly from nowhere a mysterious drive-in motel manifests itself into existence! An ensemble, the wall here is a juxtaposition of a decrepit fuel storage tank, a ladder of turned bars, and a network of sinuous PVC pipes that lead up to the retro-chic marquee signage that reads ‘Motel’. The kitchen service window is framed by obsolete cassette tape boxes covers, the waiter’s station below boasts a deep teal patina, and legs composed of old glass blocks reclaimed from the site

A table against the Americano-inspired wall reigns in a spectrum of hues and textures as the drawer faces and chairs have been finished in a fabric patchwork procured in the form of discarded fabric samples. The sewing machine and floral-wreath lamp are also experimental installations.

The most unexpected vantage views at the venue and experiencing the space from the privacy of a caravan that seems to emerge from the walls of BigTop. A post- apocalyptic war and time machine of sorts, this grand doodah has been created from the bare shell of a truck from a city scrapyard. Customised to a T with every detail envisioned by the team and the mad minds at Mechanimal, extensions in the form of discarded car parts, fire extinguishers, a satellite dish, and scrap metal come together to further layer the persona of this experiential installation.

The flooring in the entire space is a mishmash of discarded samples that have been assembled in a Tetris-like fashion, procured from ceramic, tile stores, and active sites of fellow designers in the city — each sample measured, and every segment ideated individually while it forms an integral part of a larger visual tapestry.

One of the tables on the the upper deck washed in a lively coral hue have been detailed with defunct sanitary pipe sections and electronic regulators, An ‘elbow’ light fixture conjured to life by the studio illuminates these tables. The industrial lighting fixture hoisted over the nooks is a composition of sanitary pipes and hexagonal mesh that wraps itself delicately around an exposed warm light tube on the interior.

The other coral table is detailed with electronic regulators and jazzy iridescent CDs as a celebration of the 60s golden Disco era.

The pièce de résistance is the partition system that stands at the periphery of the dining area and the community desk space overlooking the interiors of BCC. An obscure portal in its inspiration, the installation is a composite of mild steel sections found on the site interspersed with plywood display shelves that stack up upon slender metal support members. This installation is further interjected with doses of salmon pink, motor gears, discarded teapots, and film reel boxes amidst other arbitrary curios.
