Excell Artographics

Excell Artographics is tucked away on the first floor at H No 42 328 in Maruthi Nagar. Being up on that first floor means you have to walk up the stairs, which can be a bit of a workout if you’re doing it ten times a day. Dr A S Rao Nagar is usually pretty busy, so there’s always something going on outside. You can hear the traffic and people shouting from the balcony. The building itself is older, but it serves us fine. We’ve got the name Excell Artographics on the door so people don't get lost in the hallway. Maruthi Nagar has a lot of little shops and houses all mixed together. Sometimes the power goes out in the afternoon, and we just sit there waiting for the generator or the lights to come back on. It’s a typical Hyderabad neighborhood setup. The floor space is enough for what we need to get through the day. We keep our supplies stacked along the walls. It’s not a showroom or anything like that. It’s just where we work. Usually, the tea stall downstairs is where we get our morning break. You can see the main road from the window if you lean out a bit. It’s a lived-in space with plenty of character. Most of our neighbors are also running small shops or living in the flats nearby. We just keep our heads down and do the work that comes in. The walls could use a new coat of paint, but it is okay.
