Design Clinic India
This is a Delhi based multi-disciplinary design studio that exclusively launched their “the Phool Mandi Collection,” at India Design ID 2017 this year. Inspired from the a local flower market, giving the exact feel of vibrancy, freshness, colours and the marigold blooms. We loved their poufs that looked more like a bundle of flowers in a sack rather than a typical piece of furniture.

As described by the young designer at the booth, it was in 2009 when the need for an out-of-the-ordinary decorative lighting made them open their store in Bangalore. The collection they had at the expo was called WABI SABI. Light fixtures made of a material which looked like concrete but adopted lightness of being. Each light in this collection is hand crafted and hand finished.
