Set Square Architects

Our place is over in Vikhroli West, specifically at 202 on L J Road. It’s one of those busy stretches where there’s always something happening outside the window. Being on the second floor helps a bit with the street level noise, but you still hear the city hum all day long. The office itself is full of set squares, hence the name, and they’re scattered all over the drafting tables along with old coffee mugs. We aren't big on filing things perfectly, so you’ll see folders and rolls of blueprints tucked into every corner. It’s a working space, not a showroom, so things look a bit lived-in and dusty sometimes. Most days start with us checking over the latest prints and arguing about where a staircase should go. We’ve been in Vikhroli for a while and we know the shortcut to the station and where to get the best snacks in the afternoon. People stop by to chat about their houses or shops, and we just sit around the big table to look at what’s possible. It’s a practical environment where we focus on the task at hand rather than how the office looks to outsiders. The air conditioning makes a weird rattling sound sometimes, but it keeps us cool while we work through the afternoon heat. It’s just a bunch of us doing what we know how to do, right here on L J Road. We keep the curtains closed when the sun gets too bright.
