State Bank Of India | Inner Value Architects | Mohali
State Bank of India, a leader in Indian banking, sought a clean, rich interior design to cater to its High-Net-Worth clients. Their core requirements for the project included a welcoming reception area with a waiting space, a cabin for the head of the branch, a dedicated visitors’ lounge, a conference room, a separate area for wealth management officers, and a banking hall with space for the bank’s safe and locker rooms.



During the design phase, we developed a layout that revolves around a central space, effectively creating an open and inviting environment for the banking hall. The peripheral spaces, such as the head cabin, lounge, and conference room, were strategically placed around this central area to allow for the maximum flow of natural light into each cabin. This layout was inspired by the idea of a modern interpretation of a traditional courtyard, where the central space serves as the heart of the design, ensuring that all areas benefit from the surrounding light.



The design of the central area features a thematic paneling backdrop, thoughtfully curated to showcase works of art, recognizing the important role art plays in enhancing the formal ambiance of the space. The interior language throughout the project remains contemporary, with a strong emphasis on clean lines, rich materials, and refined finishes, ensuring an upscale, sophisticated atmosphere that aligns with the bank’s high-end clientele. The design balances functionality with elegance, providing a space that is both operational and visually striking, all while maintaining a seamless, welcoming atmosphere for the bank’s elite clients.



We used luxurious materials such as polished marble, rich wood paneling, and high-quality textiles to create an atmosphere of sophistication and exclusivity. The lighting design was meticulously planned to highlight the architectural features and artworks, enhancing the space’s warm and inviting feel. Subtle yet impactful details, such as custom-made furniture, textured wall finishes, and carefully curated art pieces, ensure that the space is visually appealing without compromising on functionality.


In the wealth management area, we introduced comfortable seating arrangements, ensuring privacy for sensitive discussions, while maintaining a sense of openness. The design allowed for a balance of security and accessibility, with the use of partitioned spaces that were open enough to foster collaboration but secure enough to maintain confidentiality.


The overall approach to this project was about more than just aesthetics; it was about creating a space that reflects the prestigious reputation of the State Bank of India, elevating the client experience while providing a highly functional, secure environment. The result is a sophisticated, modern space where High-Net-Worth clients feel valued and respected, while the operational needs of the bank are met with precision and elegance. Every detail was carefully crafted to ensure that the space not only reflects the bank’s image but also provides an exceptional experience for its elite clientele.


Additionally, careful attention was paid to the integration of cutting-edge technology. The banking hall features smart systems for lighting and climate control, ensuring energy efficiency and comfort. Interactive displays and digital signage provide clients with easy access to important information, making the banking experience more seamless and efficient.


Throughout the design, we prioritized flexibility and adaptability. The space was crafted to evolve with the bank’s needs, offering the potential for future changes or upgrades without compromising the core design elements. This approach ensures that the bank’s interior remains relevant and functional, even as trends and technologies evolve over time.


Furthermore, sustainability was a key consideration. We incorporated eco-friendly materials, energy-efficient lighting, and waste-reduction practices throughout the design and construction process. This not only supports the bank’s commitment to environmental responsibility but also aligns with the values of its discerning clientele, who appreciate sustainable and mindful design choices.


Ultimately, this project reflects a balance between luxury, functionality, and sustainability, creating an exceptional space that serves both the needs of State Bank of India’s high-net-worth clients and the operational demands of the institution. Through thoughtful design and careful execution, we have created a space that is not only visually stunning but also highly functional, fostering an atmosphere of trust, professionalism, and comfort for the bank’s elite clientele.
