Ananya Architects

We've been doing architecture work here at No.14/309 in Koorkenchery for quite some time now. Most days you'll find us at the office in Kottaram Lushes Aishwarya Gardens, usually surrounded by blueprints and rolls of tracing paper. It isn't a huge setup, just a few of us trying to figure out how to make spaces work better for the people around here. Sometimes we are out at sites checking on how things are coming along, but the main desk is where the drawings happen. People stop by when they have a plot of land and need to see what might fit on it. We don't do anything too fancy, just solid plans that builders can actually follow without getting confused. It gets pretty busy when there are multiple houses going up at once. The office has a lot of natural light, which helps when we're staring at small details all afternoon. We handle the paperwork and the sketches and try to keep everything organized so nothing gets missed. It's just a local office, really. If you're driving through Koorkenchery, you might have seen the sign outside. We like it here because it's quiet enough to focus but close enough to where most of the building is happening. Usually, there's a pot of tea going and some maps spread out over the tables. We just take it one project at a time and try to get the measurements right. It takes a lot of patience. I guess we have seen plenty of changes in the neighborhood over the years.
