Space & Design Pvt. Ltd.

Our place is over in Belghoria, specifically at 5/248 J.D. Nagar. Kolkata is a big city, and being in the northern part like Belghoria means things are a bit more lived-in and busy. Space & Design is what we call ourselves, and the office reflects that. We have some drawings and boards leaning against the walls. It is a bit cramped at times because we have quite a few people working in a small space. The rain in Kolkata can really slow things down, and when it pours, the sound on the roof is so loud we can barely hear the phones. We just keep working through it. J.D. Nagar is a residential area mostly, so our office feels like it is part of the neighborhood. We get our tea from the same guy every morning. There is no corporate polish here. We have old wooden desks and some computers that have seen better days. We spend a lot of time thinking about layouts and how things should look. It is a lot of measuring and re-measuring. Sometimes we stay late when a deadline is coming up, and the whole street is quiet by the time we leave. We don’t do much advertising. Most of what we do comes from people just knowing we are here in Belghoria. It is a simple life of design and paperwork in a corner of the city. We deal with sketches and colors, and sometimes the ideas come slow, but we keep at it.
