Ayaam Architecture And Design

We’re located over in Batla House, specifically at 1-A Jogabai in New Delhi. It’s a busy area, but we like it here. We’ve been doing design work for quite some time now, mostly focusing on local projects and helping people make the most of the space they have. It’s not always about making things look like they’re from a movie; usually, it’s just about making a room feel a bit bigger or getting more light in. We spend a lot of time drawing and then redrawing when we realize something won't work the way we thought. It’s a lot of trial and error. We work with a few different contractors, and we’ve learned which ones actually listen and which ones try to take shortcuts. We try to stay on top of them so the client doesn't end up with a mess. Our office is pretty simple, just a few desks and a lot of old files from past jobs. We don’t have any big signs or anything, we just focus on the work. Sometimes we’re here late finishing up a set of plans for a deadline, but that’s just how it goes in this business. We enjoy the process of seeing a sketch on a piece of paper turn into a real wall made of bricks. It’s hard work, but we’re used to it by now.
