anda_ba

anda_ba is a multidisciplinary design studio that embodies the search for contemporary indian sensibility, an experiment across different scales of design. Founded by Armaan Bansal, the studio is inspired by the natural patinas found across indian heritage, whilst retaining london’s contemporary culture. The collaboration collection between essentia and anda_ba embraces gestural carvings on locally sourced stones _ the minimal silhouettes formed by this collaboration reimagine traditional objects in a contemporary, newer indian context. Intentional gaps, shadow cuts and precision made joints inform the design language. Subtle use of blacks and shadows on the travertine background. The objects lie suspended in a junction of heritage art and a minimal object. The dialogue between two countries, materials, and eras is what inspires this collection.
