Vistaar Architects

We are located at D 2035 in Palam Vihar, Gurgaon. This part of Haryana has changed a lot over the years, but our little corner feels pretty consistent. Vistaar Architects is run out of this space where we spend most of our daylight hours. The office is basically a collection of big desks and tall chairs. It’s not one of those high-rise offices with a view of the Cyber City skyline. Instead, we are down on the ground level in the D block. The power goes out more often than we’d like, so we have a back-up system that hums in the corner. Gurgaon can be quite dusty with all the construction going on nearby, so there’s always a thin layer of grit on the windowsills. We spend our time drafting and talking to contractors on the phone. The office isn't very organized; there are rolls of drawings leaning against almost every wall. We usually eat lunch together at the main table because there’s nowhere else to sit that isn't covered in paper. It’s a quiet enough spot compared to the main roads, which is good for when we need to concentrate. We don't have a big sign or a fancy lobby to impress anyone. It’s just a place where we sit down, open our laptops, and try to get the work done before the sun goes down. Most days it's just about staying on top of the schedule.
