E M Senthil Kumar Associates

You can find us at No M-19/B in the Geethanjali Complex. We’re on 15th Avenue in Ashok Nagar, which is a nice part of town to be in. The office is tucked into the complex, and it’s usually humming with the sound of computers and the occasional printer jamming. Senthil Kumar and the rest of the associates spend most of the day looking at structural details and talking to site supervisors. We aren’t the type to wear suits to work. Usually, it’s just jeans and shirts because we’re often heading out to construction sites anyway. The office has a lot of shelves filled with technical books and folders from past years. We’ve been at this for a while, so we’ve seen all sorts of design trends come and go. We prefer things that actually work and last. Clients come by to talk about their office layouts or home renovations. We listen, take notes, and then spend hours trying to fit everything into the budget. It’s a lot of math and drawing lines that have to be exactly right. We have a small kitchen area where we make a lot of tea to stay awake during long afternoons. It’s a busy, somewhat cluttered space, but we know where everything is. We just focus on getting the drawings out on time so the work on-site doesn't stop for no reason.
