Institute F Design Tech

Down in Delux Colony, right here in Tolichowki, you will find our setup at the Institute F Design Tech. It’s a bit of a maze to get to house number 8-1-364/A/66/67 if you aren’t from around here, but once you find the main gate in the colony, it’s easier. We spend most of our time staring at screens and trying to figure out design software. The place is usually full of young people who are much faster with a mouse than I am. We have a few rooms set up with workstations, and there is always a pot of tea going somewhere in the back. Hyderabad is hot, so the fans are always on full blast. People come here to learn how to make things look good on a computer, whether it’s for building plans or just digital art. It’s a quiet enough neighborhood except for when the school nearby lets out. We don’t have a big receptionist or anything. Usually, one of us just looks up from a screen when someone walks in the door. It’s a bit cluttered with cables and old monitors, but that is how a design place usually looks when people are actually working. We’ve been in this building for a few years now. The light in the afternoon is quite nice through the front windows. Most of the people who come here live nearby in Tolichowki, so it feels like a local spot. Sometimes the internet acts up and we all have to wait around for a bit. It’s not a showroom, just a place where work gets done.
