Larsen And Toubro Ltd (Product Design Center)

This is our Product Design Center located in Jamner, which is in the Jalgaon district of Maharashtra. We are at 17 Madhav Giraja Colony. It’s a fairly quiet residential area, which is actually pretty good for the kind of design work we do here. Jamner isn't a huge city, so everyone kind of knows where everything is. The office is basically a house in the colony. We have set it up with our drafting tables and computers. It gets very hot in Jalgaon, especially in the summer months, so we have to keep the coolers going all day long. The atmosphere is pretty relaxed compared to a big city office. We wear casual clothes and don't worry about formalities much. Most of the time we are just hunched over our screens or talking about how a particular part should fit together. We get our lunch from home or from a small place down the road. There isn't any fancy lobby or a guard at the door. You just walk in and we are there working. Sometimes the neighbors’ kids are playing cricket outside, and we can hear them through the windows. It’s a very local, grounded way to work on technical designs. We’ve been at this location for some time now and it suits our needs for a quiet space to think and draw. It’s just us doing our thing in a corner of Maharashtra, focusing on the drawings and making sure the designs are solid for production.
