Architects United

Our office is tucked away in the Erandawane area, specifically on the 14th Lane just off Prabhat Road. It’s a busy part of Deccan Gymkhana, but our little corner stays surprisingly quiet for most of the day. There are always rolls of thick paper and blueprints scattered across the big tables. We spend a lot of our time hunched over site plans or having long discussions about where a particular wall should go. It’s a small team of us working here. We don't have a receptionist or a fancy waiting area for guests. Usually, you’ll just walk in and find one of us staring at a computer screen or on the phone with a contractor who’s hit a problem at a construction site. We handle a mix of small house renovations and some larger commercial projects. It’s mostly just us trying to figure out how to make a space work well without it costing the client a fortune. The coffee machine in the corner is always running, and the smell of ink is everywhere. Some days are filled with back-to-back meetings, while other days we just draw for eight hours straight without saying much. We’ve been at this Erandawane address for several years now. The parking on Prabhat Road is usually a total nightmare, so we always tell people to bring their scooters if they can. We just enjoy the process of making things that look decent and serve a purpose.
