stork chair katran by SahilSarthak from india
designer's own words:
Developed as part of the 'Zero KilometerTM Design' concept, “The Katran Collection” has been our effort to weave ethics, ethnicity and ecology with the contemporary culture. Katran in Hindi means small pieces of left over colourful cloth which is the by-product of cloth mills. These same cloth pieces are collected by farmers during their off seasons, spun into ropes and sold for the purpose of weaving traditional Indian day beds. Our effort has been to use this same vibrant material in an innovative way to create a collection of contemporary furniture and lights that are sustainable and beautiful, having a Glocal (Global + Local) appeal. This chair is completely handmade and brought to life by the ethical interactions between various actors in the system. The Katran Collection is available in various textures and colours which has been carefully cataloged by us, giving our customers the possibility to customize according to their taste and requirements. In fact none of the Katran furniture are absolutely alike due to their innate diversity of colours and textures, making each piece exclusive for their users.
