Vertant

Out here in West Kuruvapulam, things move a little slower than in the big cities. Vertant has been tucked away in Vetharanyam for a while now. Most days start with opening the shutters and letting the morning air in. It isn't a fancy place, just a workspace where we get things done. The road outside can get a bit dusty when the wind picks up, but it is home for us. We've got a small crew who knows where everything is kept, even if it looks a bit cluttered to an outsider. Sometimes people stop by just to ask for directions because of where we are located. We don't mind. We've seen the neighborhood change a bit over the years, with new buildings popping up here and there, but our spot stays pretty much the same. There is a certain rhythm to the day, from the first cup of tea to the time we lock up in the evening. We don't spend much time on fancy decorations or big signs. It’s more about the work that happens inside these walls. The floor is concrete and has some cracks, but it holds up. We know the neighbors by name and they know us. If you ever find yourself walking down these parts of West Kuruvapulam, you’ll see our place right where it has always been. It’s just a regular local business trying to do its part and stay busy throughout the week.
