Singh Herzi Architect

Our office is over at 2772, Gurdev Nagar, which is right by S.A.S. Grewal Hospital. It’s a handy landmark for people trying to find us. Singh Herzi Architect is the name on the door, and we spend most of our time hunched over drawings or looking at site plans. The hospital nearby means there’s always people moving around outside, so it never feels too lonely. We’ve been in this spot for a good while. The space is filled with rolled-up blueprints and coffee mugs that probably need washing. Designing buildings is a lot of sitting and thinking, then more sitting and drawing. We don't have a receptionist or anything like that. If you come in, you'll probably see me or one of the guys working. It can get a bit messy with all the samples and catalogs we keep around. The building itself is older, but it serves us well. Gurdev Nagar is a decent area to work in. Sometimes we take a break and walk down the street for a snack. It's not a corporate firm with glass walls. It's more of a workshop feel. We deal with clients who just want their houses or shops to look right. There's always some problem to solve with a layout or a wall. We just take it one project at a time. It’s busy but we like it that way. On rainy days, the roof drips a little near the back window, but we’ve got a bucket for that. We just keep working through it all.
