Design Art

Prabhadevi is a busy part of Mumbai and that’s where you’ll find us at Design Art. Our office is in Ganesh Bhavan, which is an old building with a lot of character, though the stairs can be a bit much if you’re carrying heavy bags. We’ve been in this spot on K.G. Marg for quite some time. Living and working in Mumbai means you’re always in a bit of a rush, but we try to keep things calm inside the office. It’s mostly just us sitting around computers or sketching ideas on whatever paper is handy. The traffic outside can be pretty loud, especially during the monsoon when everyone is honking, but we’ve gotten used to it. We don't have fancy furniture or a big lobby. It’s just a workspace. We take on all sorts of design projects. Some are interesting and some are just plain work, but we do them all the same. We don’t really do big presentations with lots of buzzwords. We just show what we’ve done and see if people like it. Usually, they do. If you’re in the area, you might see us getting tea from the stall downstairs. That’s our usual break. We like being part of this neighborhood. It’s got a good feel to it, even with the noise and the crowds. We just keep our heads down and keep working through our list of things to finish each week. We don't have a big staff, just enough of us to handle the workload. That is Design Art.
