Grid And Design

Our place is at Door No 6-2-2 in Manikonda. We are tucked behind the Kanaka Durga Temple in Bhagya Lakshmi Colony. This is a nice little pocket of Hyderabad. It still feels personal compared to the bigger commercial hubs. You can often hear the temple bells in the morning or evening. It is a nice background to the work we do. The office itself is full of computers. Different design bits are scattered around. We don't have a big fancy sign. There is no grand entrance. It’s just a regular door in a building where we spend most of our day. Manikonda has changed a lot. New buildings are going up everywhere you look. Our corner stays pretty much the same, though. We spend a lot of time staring at screens. We sketch out ideas on whatever paper is nearby. The coffee isn’t great. It’s hot and it keeps us going when we have a lot to get through. We don’t use a lot of technical jargon. When people come in, we just show them what we are working on. We listen to what they need. The chairs are a bit squeaky. The desks are crowded with cables. It’s a real working space. We aren't trying to impress anyone with a sleek office. We just want to make sure the designs are solid. We do a fair day's work. The clock on the wall is five minutes fast. It's just how we keep things moving here in Hyderabad.
