From dribbling for Karnataka to teeing at the greens, it has been a giant leap for the young Coorgi
As a final year college student, Sharath Somanna bagged his first contract in 2013 by approaching a building owner who had stopped construction mid-way. Five years later, he has grown into an accomplished builder and interior designer, whose company executed projects worth Rs 20 crore last year.
He is now focusing on turn-key projects instead of taking mere contractual work and is all set to turn his company, Blue Oak Constructions & Interiors Pvt Ltd, launched in 2014 with an investment of Rs 46,000 into a pan India firm and also has plans to go global soon.
"Clients today are not in favour of a separate designer, a separate contractor and so on. We are trying to give them that one solution," says the 27-year-old Somanna. "Since we come from a contracting background, and with a great team of in-house designers, we do the best execution. And, we don't charge for the designs."
But it has not been a smooth sailing for the son of an army man from Kodagu district, whose lack of formal training in civil engineering or interior designing did not deter him from winning big projects, ranging from residential buildings to commercial structures to corporate offices to industries.
