Guleria Vijay Pal Architect

You can find us at the Bsnl building, on the First Floor of the Telephone Exchange in Phase-Xi, Sector-65. It’s a bit of an unusual spot for an architect, being right there in the exchange building, but it works well for us. There’s plenty of space and it’s a central location for anyone coming from around Sector-65. The office itself is pretty functional. We have the usual drawing boards and a few workstations. Being in a government-owned building means things are fairly predictable. We’ve been here for a while now. The walk up the stairs is a bit of a workout, but it’s fine. We handle a lot of residential projects, but we see some commercial stuff too. It’s a mix. Most days are spent on the phone or working through design problems on the computer. It’s not all creative work; there’s a lot of technical stuff that goes into making sure a building is safe and meets all the local codes. We try to be thorough. The lunch breaks are usually spent at the local stalls nearby. Sector-65 has grown a lot since we first moved in. There’s always some new project popping up. We just keep our heads down and focus on the work in front of us. It’s a steady pace, and we like the routine we’ve built here in Phase-Xi. Sometimes we stay late when a deadline is coming up, but that is just part of the job.
