The swing that brings childhood memory into the present.

A familiar object of play is reimagined through contemporary craft, bringing together sculptural metalwork, woven details and bold colour. Playful yet considered, it turns nostalgia into an object for today.

The Mirror that brings the history of gold into the present.

Across art and material culture, gold has long been used as a surface to catch light, create ornament, and heighten presence. The Gilded Current draws from this visual language through hand-shaped, deliberately irregular brass, turning reflection into a shifting study of light, movement, and imperfection.

Across different objects, a simple form takes on different roles: becoming structure, detail, gesture and function. It is a reminder that in design, even the most familiar forms can find new ways to exist.

A landscape you can inhabit.
Inspired by the Prithvi Mudra, the Prithvi Sofa explores grounding, nourishment and balance through a sculptural form. Curved teak wood, soft cotton upholstery and a low, grounded silhouette come together to create a piece that feels as much a part of its surroundings as it does an object within them.

The spaces we inhabit can influence how we experience time.

From intimate rooms designed for reading and reflection to spaces shaped around stillness and observation, the idea of the pause has appeared across cultures and centuries. These spaces are not defined by their size or function alone, but by the way architecture, objects, light and material come together to create a particular state of mind.

At House of Santal, we explore how considered objects can become part of that experience: shaping spaces that leave room for pause and reflection.

Silent Rivers of Time captures light in motion, holding each shimmer between movement and memory. Mosaic, tikri and hand-textured metal come together to create a surface that shifts with every glance.

The longer you look, the more the piece reveals.

Inspired by the cross-legged geometry of the historical meditative form (shown as Narasimha here), Padm Aasan reinterprets the posture through balance, curve and proportion. A familiar form becomes a new way of sitting: grounded, quiet and intentional.

A conversation between sculpture, posture and design.

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.
