Project Narrative
Located in the vibrant city of Hyderabad, the 17 Degrees North Club is a luxurious retreat that harmonizes traditional Hyderabadi aesthetics with contemporary design. Inspired by its rich heritage, the concept seeks to elevate the city’s legacy while introducing a touch of contemporary fusion.
The design draws inspirations from the grandeur of the Nizams through its use of shades of yellow and gold, intricate wall motifs, and hanging lights from the ceilings, all of which reflect the architectural elegance of the time. A hint of modernity can be observed in the use of pearls in wall artworks and contemporary lighting.
Upon entering the club, guests are greeted at the grand lobby which features a modern reception desk set against the backdrop of rustic marble. A wonderful parametric crystal chandelier cascades through the double-height space, connecting the reception space with the waiting lounge, symbolizing the gem industry in Hyderabad.
The left wing of the lobby takes you to an all-day dining restaurant with a vibrant café. This area serves as the centre of the club’s F&B offerings which also a includes a specialty restaurant. The banquet areas are to the right, each around 10,000 to 12,000 square feet, complemented by a large lawn which can be accessed through a drop-off area that is dedicated to this space. At the end of the grand lobby, where contemporary archways inspired by Nizami architecture evoke a sense of royal grandeur and the feeling of arrival, guests can step into a lavish spa to unwind and rejuvenate.
The interiors of the club are woven with Hyderabadi cultural elements such as Kalamkari art and block printing. This theme extends to the guest rooms, where opulent materials and curved parametric headboards celebrate the handiwork of the city's semi-precious stone industry.
The upper floors include a business lounge, conference rooms, and a modern gym meant for the daily use by corporate members. It also features an expansive bar which is a perfect place for informal gatherings and quiet meetings. The top floor hosts an indoor sports and children's games area which ensures a totally inclusive zone for recreational purposes.
The outdoor facilities, synonymous with both relaxation and sport, include tennis courts, volleyball courts, a multipurpose football field, and a box cricket area. The design team has dutifully designed and re-landscaped the architectural constraints, thus successfully transforming the entire area into a luxurious haven – a mere masterpiece.
The principal materials used in the design include stone, metal, and glass, each chosen to reflect the club’s ethos of elegance and durability. The thoughtful combination of these materials enhances the club's aesthetic appeal, making 17 Degrees North Club a landmark of luxury in Hyderabad.
