Jain Richa Architect

You can find us at B-137(Z) in Kitchlu Nagar, right in the Civil Lines area. Richa started this practice a while back, and we’ve been working out of this space ever since. Civil Lines is a good part of town, though parking can sometimes be a bit of a headache for visitors. The office itself is pretty simple. We have a couple of large tables for layouts and some shelves that are honestly getting a bit too full of old catalogs and material samples. We spend a lot of time on the computer, but we still like to sketch things out by hand when we’re first thinking of an idea. It feels more real that way. We don’t have a big marketing budget or a team of people to handle the phones, so things are a bit more personal. If you come by, you’ll probably hear the hum of the printer or someone arguing over a measurement. We deal with all sorts of small and medium projects around the city. It’s a lot of back and forth with the builders and making sure the materials arrive when they’re supposed to. Sometimes things go wrong, and we have to fix them on the fly, but that’s just part of the job. We try to keep things honest and just do what we said we’d do. It’s a busy life here in Kitchlu Nagar, but we wouldn’t have it any other way.
