Dhrishticone Architects

Our office is right here on the second floor of Fewteck Tower in the Purani Basti area of Raipur. If you know where the Union Bank is near Lily Chowk, we are just beside that. It is a busy part of town and there is always something going on outside our windows. Dhrishticone Architects is basically just us working away at our desks surrounded by rolls of tracing paper and old site photos. The climb up to the second floor keeps us moving. We spend a lot of our time looking at blueprints or talking about how a wall should sit. The morning starts with tea and checking what needs to get done before the heat gets too bad in Chhattisgarh. It is not a fancy place but we have enough room for our drawing boards and a few chairs for when people drop in to talk. Sometimes the traffic noise from Lily Chowk gets loud but you stop noticing it after a while. Being in Purani Basti means we are close to everything we need. We have been in this spot for a bit now and the walls are covered with sketches from past years. We don't really do much besides work on these plans and drink way too much tea during the day. It’s a simple life here in the tower and we just try to get the drawings right for whoever comes in through the door.
