Publisher's Synopsis
A lavish showcase of the possibilities of Indian crafts being used in expressive, practical and contemporary ways within interior spaces. Practitioners of traditional crafts in the country have been since antiquity using locally available materials to create objects of value used for a variety of purposes. Based on the understanding that the best results are obtained when a craft itself forms the DNA of a design, the contributors take us through the wide range of regional craft variations as well as outstanding examples of design solutions that utilize these crafts.
