Elimpression Architectural Studio Pvt Ltd

Our studio is located at 222B, Ettiyapan Street, over in Mogappair. It’s a regular street in a residential part of Chennai, so it feels quite grounded. We’ve been operating out of this space for a while now, and it’s become a bit of a second home for the team. Inside, it’s mostly just desks, computers, and a lot of half-finished drawings. We don’t have a fancy showroom or a bunch of receptionists. When you come in, you’re usually walking right into the middle of a design session. We spend our days staring at screens and trying to figure out the best way to use a particular piece of land. Mogappair is a good place to be because it’s quiet enough to get work done but close enough to the rest of the city. We often find ourselves working late into the evening when a deadline is coming up, so the lights at 222B are usually the last ones on the street to go out. It’s a practical environment where we focus on the technical side of architecture. We don't spend much time on fancy talk; we just like to get the plans right. Most of us have lived in Chennai for years, so we understand the local building rules and the challenges of the climate here. The street outside is usually quiet in the mornings, but it picks up later on. We have a small pantry in the back where we make endless cups of coffee to keep us going through the day.
