School Of Planning And Architecture

Our office is in the Matoshri Building, which is Plot No 108 in Jawahar Colony. This is over in Aurangabad. It is a busy neighborhood with a lot of houses and small businesses packed together. We use a couple of rooms in the building for our work. There are usually drawings and maps spread out across every flat surface we can find. It’s a bit of a mess, honestly, with pencils and rulers everywhere. We spend a lot of time thinking about how buildings should be put together. It’s not always exciting; there is a lot of measuring and double-checking numbers. The building we are in is okay, though the stairs are a bit narrow if you’re carrying big boards or rolls of paper. We have a few windows that look out over the street, so we can see the local traffic while we work. Most of us have been working in architecture for a while, so we just get on with it. We don't have a fancy reception area. If someone comes by, they usually just knock and find us at the back table. Sometimes we have students who come by to ask questions about their projects. We try to help them out when we have a minute. It’s a hardworking little spot in a quiet part of the colony. We've been here for years and the neighbors know us well.
