Give Us A Brief Over View Of Cindu V Tech. What Are The Major Features About The Company And Your Expertise As Aleader?
I am a gold medalist from CET, Kerala, and I founded Cindu V Tech in 2006, after more than 15 years of experience in India, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America. Calicut was a very male-dominated and orthodox city at the time, and the Architect did not fit in.                                   

Beginning with just two major ventures, I quickly spread my practice across Kerala, as well as to Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. All of the projects are one-of-a-kind and completed with a high level of responsibility, transparency, and loyalty to not only the clients but also to society and the environment. All of the projects are exclusive and are regularly covered by all of the major Malayalam construction and design magazines. Cindu V Tech's designs range from small apartment interiors to homes, renovations, hospitals, hotels, conference centers, and shopping malls. Both projects, large or small, high-end or low budget, are undertaken with the same enthusiasm and zeal.

“We specialize in custom, one-of-a-kind solutions for each project, after thoroughly analyzing the site, venue, client requirements, and local material availability”

How Has Cindu V Tech's Growth Journey Been So Far? What Are The Different Facets Of Your Personality Or Your Leadership Style That Have Helped The Company Propel Further In Its Growth Journey?
Cindu V, the practice's founder, was diagnosed with breast cancer not long after it opened in 2006. Even though I had a mastectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation treatments and was sick much of the time, refused to close the office and continued to pay the staff and rent while actively juggling all the tasks. My business grew from two small projects to a practice of nearly 50 projects running concurrently, covering nearly 750 projects ranging from small apartments to major hospitals and convention centers. Every project is an adventure in and of itself.

What Is The Road Map A Head For Cindu V Tech? Is The Firm Looking To Focus On Any Specific Areas To Fuel Its Growth Trajectory In The Days To Come?
We also hope to work on more environmentally and socially conscious projects. Cindu V, the Chief Architect, has given many online talks for various leading magazines to instill in the public the moral obligation to preserve our heritage buildings. As I grow older, I realize how important it is to preserve our culture and support our artisans so that all skills are preserved. As a feminist, I am deeply concerned about the well-being of professional women. Self-improvement and development are essential for any architect who wishes to make their journey meaningful.
