Hey Aframe,

let us hope they are not as overworked as the Indian outsourced labor force: http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/asiapcf/12/25/india.outsourcing.ap/index.html
eh, its pretty nice at work, but the train commute to work can be a little frustrating...

Thanks to all for your responses. The outsourcing trends, and the work of Studio Mumbai, are great stories.
For this article, we will focus on design firms in the US that are completing projects in India, like Antilia in Mumbai.
Aframe - can you let me know when/where this article will be published...? i'd be interested in reading it.
thanks.
Todd Williams and Billie Tsien are doing a project in Mumbai, it is in the early stages of construction.
Thanks again for the responses.
This article is still in the proposal stage, so the publication date is unknown. I'll post all the details when this is determined.
Please do let me know if you hear of any other relevant projects.
