Wipro Campus

Spread across Gopanpally, near Hyderabad’s Financial District and Gachibowli, the Wipro Corporate Campus reflects the company’s ambition to create an environmentally responsive, future-ready workplace for 11,000 employees. Conceived as a community-oriented corporate precinct, the campus is shaped by climate performance, sustainability, cultural resonance, and employee wellbeing.

Designed as a high-performance environment rooted in Hyderabad’s tropical climate and local identity, the campus responds to two core ambitions: delivering nearly one million square feet of office space with efficient ground coverage, and advancing the company’s net-zero aspirations. These objectives inform every aspect of the design. All buildings are aligned along the north-south axis to reduce heat gain, while staggered forms create self-shading and improve airflow. Deep terraces extend workspaces outward, forming shaded breakout areas that encourage outdoor use.

The towers are shaped by detailed wind and solar studies. Internal courtyards support cross-ventilation and bring daylight deep into the office floors. Facades combine double-skinned glass with terracotta clay tiles to reduce thermal load, while earth-toned brick hues connect the architecture to local material traditions. Water features inspired by baolis and ghats provide evaporative cooling and contribute to a calmer microclimate, while the site’s natural topography is retained to minimise cut and fill.

Operational efficiency is integral to the campus. Passive design strategies reduce heat gain, while active systems enhance performance during periods of peak demand. A 0.5 million square foot underfloor air distribution system works with IoT-enabled devices on the GECC platform to monitor building systems in real time. With an annual energy use intensity of about 65 kilowatt-hours per square metre and a 70 percent reduction in water use through rainwater harvesting and full greywater recycling, the campus meets rigorous sustainability benchmarks. At ground level, a vehicle-free layout prioritises walkability, safety, and social exchange, completing the campus as a workplace that is efficient, climate-responsive, and deeply attuned to human experience.
