Nasa Engineering, Calcutta, India

We’ve been working out of Salt Lake City in Calcutta for a long time now. Our address is AL-144 in Sector II, and it’s a pretty typical spot for this part of town. Calcutta 91 has its own special energy, and Sector II is right in the middle of it all. The office is an engineering hub, so you’ll find plenty of calculators, old drafting tools, and stacks of technical manuals on the shelves. It’s not the newest building in the world, but it has character and it’s where we feel most comfortable. We spend our days looking over engineering problems and trying to find practical ways to solve them. It’s noisy outside with the city sounds, but we’ve got our routine down. We drink a lot of tea while we work. The furniture is functional, mostly wooden desks that have been around since the company started. We don't have a marketing team or anyone to write fancy brochures. We just do the engineering work that needs doing. Sometimes the power goes out and we just take a break until it comes back, chatting about local news or the weather. It’s a very human way to run a business. We know our neighbors and we’ve seen the area change over the years, but we’re still here at AL-144 doing the same kind of steady work. It is simple and we prefer it that way without any extra noise or complicated systems.
