Primarily working as a Furniture Designer, I see myself as an artist, storyteller, writer, poet and collector for the world I am presently contained in. Working as a maker of myth, creating artefacts for the present day scenarios; whether they are books, stories, objects or just poems. I prefer to merge the inanimate with the animate; to make things more ‘alive’ by weaving myths into reality. By making things more vulnerable to the possessor of the object so that he/she is able to see it’s soul.
Preferring to pre-dominantly working with objects of craft and poetry, I like to view them as artefacts of our time; as storytellers of our lives and modes of living. I am based out of Mumbai (India) and have a Masters of Arts (M.A) in Social Design from the Design Academy Eindhoven and a Bachelor's in Furniture & Spatial Design from Srishti School of Art Design & Technology, Bangalore.
Currently working as the Creative Manager for Josmo Studio in Mumbai where I lead the product design team, co-create new collections + their art direction and do custom client servicing projects.
