A familiar form, made new.

The Lota Coat Stand takes the humble Indian lota and reimagines it as a sculptural object for the everyday. Hand-hammered brass and reclaimed teak bring together material memory, craft and contemporary function.

A form rooted in the familiar, finding a new place in the present.

Two forms, one chair.

Tamoshi Gaja Asandi brings together the monumental presence of the elephant and the utilitarian poetry of New York subway seating. Charred teak and hand-polished brass give the piece its grounded weight, while its unexpected proportions bring a sense of play.

A study in how contrasting references can find a common form.

The Akash Chair draws from the idea of space; not as emptiness, but as openness. Its proportions, negative space, and sculptural silhouette create a presence that feels both grounded and effortless.

Part of the Mudra Collection, the chair translates an elemental idea into a contemporary object, where material and form work in quiet harmony.

The Monsformer began as a mechanical form assembled from nearly 700 hardware hinges and hand-blown glass globes. Once built, it became something else entirely.
Over three days, more than 500 people added layers of neon paint to its surface. Individual gestures accumulated into a shared skin, transforming the object without erasing its original structure.
Part machine. Part creature. Part collective memory.

The Console that shares a deeper story on its surface.

Native brings together influences from Mid-century design, Tanjore paintings, and Egyptian Art Deco into a single object. Illustrated panels, warm teak, and brass details transform a functional console into a layered visual narrative.

Drushti Pithika explores the space between sculpture and storage, where everyday interactions become part of a larger narrative. Hand-set brass eyes emerge from a charred wood surface, catching light and quietly shifting the way the piece is experienced.

Every seat begins with a gesture.

Across the House of Santal collection, seating is imagined as a response to the body. Some pieces borrow from mudras, some from natural formations, others from the character of a material; but each begins with a human action before it becomes furniture.

Discover Seating that begins with a gesture at House of Santal.

Featured: Padm Aasan, Black Slice Chair, Mental Dismantle Chair and Rock Bar Stool.

The Clove Dining Chair is shaped through contrast: hand-chiselled ash wood against woven cane, sculpted curves balanced with clean geometry, and subtle brass details that quietly catch the light.

The piece rewards closer observation and each turn reveals another detail, another texture, another layer of craftsmanship.

The way an object responds to light is as important as the materials it is made from.

The Rock Pyrite Dining Table brings together polished chrome and silver pyrite stone: two materials that reflect light in distinctly different ways. One is crisp and direct, the other fractured and diffused. Together, they create a surface that shifts subtly with its surroundings.
