Prashant Deshmukh & Associates

Prashant Deshmukh & Associates is situated on the 3rd floor of the Navlakha Complex. If you know Pune, you know Paud Road can be quite a hectic place with all the traffic and shops. Our office is up there away from the street noise, mostly. It’s a functional space. We didn’t spend much on decorating it because we’re usually too busy to notice the walls anyway. There are three floors to climb if the lift is being slow, which happens sometimes. We have our drafting tables and our computers all set up. Most days, it’s just the sound of keyboards and the occasional discussion about a drawing. We keep a pretty regular schedule. Pune has a specific way of doing things, and we fit right into that local pace. We aren’t trying to be the biggest firm out there. We just want to do the work that’s in front of us. There’s always a bit of dust from the road, and we probably have too many files piled up in the corners, but we know where everything is. Clients come in, sit on the plain chairs we have, and we talk through their needs. It’s a very hands-on environment. No one here wears a suit unless they absolutely have to. We just get on with it, day in and day out, right here in the middle of Paud Road. It’s a bit noisy but it’s our space and it works well for us.
