Saurabh Gupta Architects

We’ve been working out of our office at 604-A in Nehru Place for a while now. It’s a busy spot, always something happening outside the windows. Saurabh Gupta Architects is basically just a small group of us who spend most of our days staring at floor plans and site drawings. Most people know this building because it’s easy to find once you’re in the main square. We don’t really do fancy presentations or anything like that. Usually, people just come by with a rough idea of what they want to build, and we sit down and try to figure out if it's actually possible. Sometimes the drawings take longer than we expect because things get complicated. We handle all sorts of projects, from small renovations to bigger structures, but it’s mostly just us working through the details one by one. Our desk is usually covered in coffee mugs and rolled-up blueprints. It’s not a quiet office, especially when we’re debating where a wall should go or how the light will hit a room. We just focus on getting the lines right. If you’re around Nehru Place, you probably see us heading out for lunch or coming back with rolls of paper. It’s just how it is here. We like the work, even when it gets stressful with deadlines. There isn't much to say other than we show up every day and try to make sense of the spaces people want us to design.
