Farrago Design

It’s that time of the year again.

New York Design week.
So many colors, ideas, faces, conversations, and beautiful things to take in.

You walk in thinking you will see everything in one day.
You never can so we might have some more reels. #

Ten days. More than 15 workshops. So many conversations, ideas, and reminders of why we do this.
This trip took us from planes to rickshaws to a second class train when there was no flight to catch, all in the name of meeting the people behind the work. Some of these workshops have been part of our story for more than 25 years. We explored new materials, discussed new techniques, and spent time with the craftsmen who continue to teach us, challenge us, and inspire what comes next.
Back now, full of ideas and very excited to see what this journey turns into. Thank you to

When Anurag at Nema Workshop asked us to make custom nightstands for his project in Delhi, we were genuinely thrilled.

Oval shaped, inlaid bone tiles, fluting done by hand, made to fit perfectly beside the upholstered.

Thank you, Nema Workshop, for trusting us with this. And thank you to ab Architects for sharing the video

Can an architecture and design film festival reach all your senses ?

That’s what ADFF:STIR did in Mumbai this year!

I went thinking it would be a few days of good films but it ended up being an event where you leave with fresh references and a lot of ideas swirling. The screenings were inspiring and educational, from film around Charles and Ray to Dior. And the format kept it from feeling like you’re just sitting and watching. There were monologues, conversations, music performances. It was all encompassing.

But the best part for me was the Jaguar pavilions.

Ten design teams curated by Aric Chen created ten different pavilion concepts. Different materials, different architectural moves, different stories. I kept thinking, “Mumbai needs more of this.” Not to mention the music performance by Aashna Gupta and Hidayat Husain khan.

I hope ADFF:STIR keeps growing and comes back even bigger.

In the studio we call these our mini hat boxes.
Round bone inlay boxes , off white, made to stack or sit on their own.

They are simple pieces that keep small things in place. Rings at the end of the day. A watch you reach for every morning. Cleansing stones or little objects you like to keep close. The pattern is subtle, the colour soft, so they sit easily with whatever else you live with. With the holidays coming up, this is the kind of gift we like to give. Something made carefully by hand that can stay out all year and feel like part of the home.

The beauty of things lies in texture.
The quiet shifts. The soft distortions.
The way light plays across metal.
Silver tones, cast metal, and subtle textures to create depth.
It’s not about seeing
It’s about reflecting differently.
