Habitat World, At India Habitat Centre

You can find us at Yamuna Vihar, on the first floor of building C3/342. It’s a bit of a distance from the main India Habitat Centre, but this is where we handle a lot of the behind-the-scenes stuff for Habitat World. Delhi-110053 is a busy residential area, so it feels very different from the posh parts of the city. Our office is a simple one. We don't have a big lobby or anything like that. It’s mostly just desks and people working on schedules or answering questions about events. Sometimes it gets a bit cramped when we have a lot of files piled up, but we manage. We’ve been here in Yamuna Vihar for some time, and the neighbors know us. The stairs up to the first floor are a bit steep, so we tell people to watch their step. We spend our days coordinating things, making sure the right people are in the right place for whatever is happening at the center. It’s a lot of coordination and checking lists over and over. We don't use any fancy language to describe what we do. We just make sure the operations side of things doesn't fall apart. It’s a lot of mundane tasks that add up to something bigger. We like the local vibe here, and there's always someone selling snacks downstairs. It’s just a normal workplace with normal people doing their bit.
