Sama Landscape Architects

Sama Landscape Architects is located on 90 Feet Road in Baner Gaon, at number 81/2. Being focused on landscapes, we have a lot of stuff in the office that you wouldn’t find in a regular architect’s place. There are pots of various plants sitting on every available surface, and sometimes there’s a bit of dirt on the floor from when we’ve been checking root systems or soil types. The office faces the road, so it gets quite a bit of dust, and we’re constantly wiping down the drafting tables. We have big windows that let in a lot of light, which is good for the plants and for us when we’re drawing. The desks are covered in topographical maps and books about local trees and shrubs. It’s a bit of a messy environment, with boots tucked under desks and raincoats hanging on the backs of chairs. We spend a lot of our time thinking about how things will look outside, even while we're stuck inside behind our screens. There’s a small kettle in the corner that we use for making tea throughout the day, and usually, someone has brought in some biscuits to share. The noise from 90 Feet Road is always there, but we’ve got some tall plants by the window that help muffle it a little bit. It’s a practical workspace for people who spend half their time out in the sun and the other half hunched over a drawing board in the shade.
