THE CONCEPT NOTE
Wabi-Sabi concept was initiated to emphasize the “wisdom in natural simplicity” as we all are aware how the modern society has shifted its ways from using primitive sustainable materials and eco-friendly techniques of production to choosing alternative quick and budget friendly factory made solutions using synthetic and artificial materials neglecting the fact that such methods have led to adverse environmental impacts.
In this project most of the materials and products used have been direct elements of nature such as teak wood, clay pots, encaustic clay tiles, wall decor pieces made
out of hemp, jute/ linen upholstery along with indoor plants which provide prominence to human comfort in a space. Utilizing local arts and crafts plays a major role in maintaining sustainable culture. Hand crafted furniture, kalamkari art, Cane crafts, tie and dye with plant based colours, ikkat woven fabric, hand embroidery, hand made clay pots, banana fibre lamps and some more eco-friendly practices have been given significance.
