Sidhu Amolak Deep Singh Architect

I’m usually over at Plot No.51-52 in Vikas Nagar, right near the Cipet Hostel. It’s a busy spot near the RS Mills post office. This isn’t a fancy corporate firm with glass walls; it’s just me and a small group working on drawings. I’ve been around this neighborhood for a while now. Most days I’m just buried under blueprints or sketching out things for people who want to fix up their houses. People stop by when they’re lost looking for the hostel, and I end up chatting with them. My office is a bit cluttered with rolls of paper and half-drunk cups of tea, but that’s how I work. I don't really do the whole flashy presentation thing. I just focus on the lines and the measurements. If you’re walking past the post office, you’ve probably seen the sign. It’s nothing special to look at from the outside, but it’s where everything gets done. Sometimes the noise from the mill area is a bit much, but you get used to it. I spend a lot of time checking local regulations and making sure things fit right on a piece of paper before anyone starts digging holes. It’s practical work. No big speeches or high-end slogans here. Just a desk, some lights, and plenty of pens. It gets dusty in this part of town, so I’m always cleaning off my table. That's about it. We just keep our heads down and draw.
