THANK YOU

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Nasadeeya Architecture and Conservation for this opportunity to work as a Trainee that prioritized learning and self-improvement throughout my internship period of 6 months. What made the work worthwhile were my mentors. I am extremely grateful to Ar. Archana Deshmukh ma’am for guiding me and for giving me this opportunity that challenged me to stretch and grow. She has given me wonderful opportunities for my first step in design, site visits, client meetings and has been a constant drive for improvement.

I am equally grateful to all my mentors Ar. Ruchita Belapurkar, Ar. Devayani Kumavat, Ar. Pratiksha Dalvi and Ar. Shivraj Dangat who helped me deliver excellent results and inspired me to do my best. The dynamic nature of the place , the calibre of the team, ambition of the organisation and the work itself helped me be creative and adaptable to the team. I am also grateful to all you knowingly and unknowingly have been a part of making my internship a success. Last, but not the least, the team of co-interns made the internship period a time of fun, learning and of sharing insights and made this journey exciting and successful.
