Shilpi Interior Architects

You can find us on the 7th floor of the V K Industrial Estate. The building is at 10/14 Pais Street in Mahalaxmi, right across from Simplex Mills. It is an older industrial part of Mumbai, so there is always some noise and activity going on outside. Being on the 7th floor means we get a bit of a breeze, but it’s still Mumbai, so it’s usually pretty warm. Our space is called 714, and it is filled with rolls of paper and various catalogs for tiles and wood. We do interior architecture, which mostly means we spend a lot of time drawing lines and checking measurements. We don't have a big reception area or anything like that. If you come by, you’ll probably just see us hunched over our desks or talking to a supplier about a delivery. We’ve been in this spot for quite a while now. The area around Mahalaxmi has changed a lot, but this building stays pretty much the same. We spend a lot of our time traveling to different sites across the city, but this is where we come back to do the actual planning. We don't use any fancy language to describe our work. We just look at a room and try to figure out how to make it work. There is usually a lot of coffee being drank while we work out the details of a project. It’s just us doing what we know.
