Who are we 

We @ Nolwa Studio are a product design company, we love the design space - it gives us happiness, we push boundaries and dont conform.

What do we do 

We merge modern design with traditional Indian craft forms to make high-end contemporary furniture and lighting. Essentially design intervention.

Why are we doing this 
 Indian craft forms have amazing stories, materials and craftsmanship that have the potential to feature in the high-end space. Unfortunately, they have chosen the mass market route and are fading away due to a non-evolution of their designs.
 There is a huge void in the high-end market for Indian high design and handicraft/handcrafted pieces.
 We love design and it makes us inherently happy.

How are we doing this 

We collaborate with design studios overseas that have been chosen to match the craft forms we are working with. We manufacture the designs with the help of the craftsmen.

So what (Impact) 

Making rich, intricate and skill intensive craft forms desirable for the modern audience.
