Shijogeorge

Shijogeorge operates from Cb-4D in the Dda Flats of Hari Nagar. New Delhi has a lot of these government-built housing societies, and we are right in one of them. The flats in Hari Nagar have been around for quite a while. They all look pretty much the same from the outside, with the same brickwork and window designs. Our unit, Cb-4D, is where we spend most of our hours. It is a lived-in space. There are files on the tables and a couple of old chairs for when people come by. Being in a DDA flat means you are always close to your neighbors. You can hear televisions and people cooking through the walls sometimes. It is a very grounded environment. We do not have any big branding or expensive signage. Most people find us through the address or by asking around the block. Hari Nagar is a solid middle-class neighborhood. There are parks nearby and local markets that have everything you could need. We like it here because it is unpretentious. The work we do is straightforward, so we do not need a fancy office to do it. Sometimes the water pressure is low or the electricity flickers, but that is just part of living in an older Delhi neighborhood. We just keep our heads down and stay busy with the work we have in front of us.
