Speaking of a design competition she took part in for the Mallya Aditi School, she describes the engagement she took on after it wound up. She describes in detail the design intricacies and strategies used for the courtyard, amphitheater, and peripheral spaces including nature walk spots for the 5-acre site. Furthermore, she mentions working with rare materials for the project. She then goes into detail on how she went on to sensitize the children on the landscape with small educative talks. Responding to a question on the journey behind the evolution of her firm, she provides details about Oikos Landscape Architects. She dwells on the story and meaning behind the name as well as the initial mission and purpose of the firm. 

Moving on to talk about one of the first projects that were handed to the firm in 1992, she recalls the preservation efforts and work process that went behind the sites and services project at the edge of a mangrove forest in Maharashtra. On the industrial projects she soon took on, she talks about the challenging work that needed to go into a specific site of about 192 acres, as well as the exacting client negotiations. She recalls the various design elements and strategies she used for the huge landscapes involved, and to stimulate healthy competition on the project team. On the 5-acre Infosys project she designed, she remembers the space she had to work with and recreate. Speaking further on the design elements she implemented on a second expanded software campus, she remembers the resources and client relations she had to navigate and her overall fulfilling experience working on it. Moving on, she talks about the team that worked behind the Infosys projects, and other projects that come to her mind, including the 120-acre Indian Institute of Management (IIM) – Tiruchirappalli and the 20-acre Mindtree Kalinga. The IIM project was one that the CNT Architects won in a competition and she remembers the design concept, materials, and spaces that went behind the project.
