Handwork Studio collaborates with Niaz Husain Soomro and his family in a small Sufi town of Bith Shah in Sind, Pakistan. Niaz Hussain’s family is one of the last remaining in this region that still produces Ajrak cloth using time-honoured methods.

Handwork strives to re-contextualize traditional artisan techniques for a contemporary audience
Barefoot Ceylon is a Sri Lankan brand combining the craft of weaving with the art of design. In 1964, Barbara Sansoni was invited to design in a convent workshop just north of Colombo.

OMA Space is an art and design studio based in Seoul engaging in experimental work with a variety of natural fibres–most recently hemp.

Toy and Joy Singh started with only one printing table in the family home 26 years ago. As a result of their constant experimentation with dyes, designs, and techniques, they have been able to give a new dynamism and a more international attitude to the traditional craft of fabric printing in Rajasthan. They have a fresh approach to colours and shapes and often look towards the European garden for inspiration. All products are made using 100% cotton that is sourced locally within India.
