Entry Description

Slō By Variously is our conscious appreciation for choosing harmony over clutter & chaos. Handlooms rooted in heritage stories need to be conserved before they turn obsolete.Our contemporary textiles have been ethically made by responsible hands & efficient mindsfrom concept to production.Carefully planning & a collaborative approach helped us overcome the challenges of a pandemic to ensure finery in craftsmanship. Besides being responsible towards environment, sustainability for us also means sustained employment of artisan communities.For us good design must facilitate these combined values.
