Nzela table

Indian furniture and decor market is at the moment filled with imported(foreign) goods or Chinese stuff. To find a true Indian designer who has merged tradition and need to modern day design is a very difficult task.

Penholder

So when I found designer Krishnakumar’s site I was excited. Why? You can see for yourself.

Penholder
He describes his products as:
combination of warm and cold material which is very characteristic of Indian craft products.

Not only he has designed these warm wood winners he has also experimented with palm leaves. Using natural dyes he has got these amazing effects.

Krishnakumar’s wearables are also techno delights.
