Doodling maybe defined as scribbling absent-mindedly but these Mumbaikars are using it to celebrate the city, as well as incorporate it in their jobs as architects

Diya Joseph was in college studying architecture when she started doodling in 2019, and hasn’t looked back since then. She explains, “We had this documentation trophy for which we used to practice every day to improve our hand control to make intricate sketches. I did not want to lose the head start, so after the competition, I started with a sketch diary where I captured daily events.” Soon enough, Diya started @dheemilocal, after being inspired by her daily travel in the Mumbai local trains.
