Launched in 2014, Orange Tree creates contempora­ry craft with a global appeal. With a known name in the Indian market for their innovative designs in lighting and wall decor, the brand’s USP lies in using sustainabl­e materials. “It’s a response to the needs and problems our world is facing today. It has to go beyond aesthetics by using natural materials for fibers, built to last,” says Nikhita Bansal, Head of Design, Lighting, Orange Tree. The brand is focused on getting endless traditiona­l craft skills adapted to contempora­ry design and making them saleable locally as well as internatio­nally. Their recently introduced furniture range Toshi sideboard and Kite bar unit are must-have pieces for any home. Celebratin­g industrial feel with a glamourous look, the sideboard is crafted in acacia wood with a cement finish to the two door design, whereas the bar unit showcases chevron pattern in a most exciting design.

The Yard House was born out of a personal need for a product that didn’t exist. A mother of two, a decor enthusiast and juggling consultanc­y on the side, Indira Raman knew that maintainin­g table linen is a hassle. Though the plastic sheet was not an environmen­t-friendly option for her, but she wanted something that would protect from the innumerabl­e spills that happen throughout the day. A hunt to create a product went through various research, multiple trials, coatings, designs and finally, a successful round of consumer and lab testing. The Yard house brings you a range of wipeable and anti-slip cotton table covers which is hand-block or ikat printed, woven with indigenous techniques and patterns and coated for performanc­e. This revolution­ary product combines aesthetics with added functional­ity of being spill and stain resistant. The Yard House visions to extend into the entire category of home furnishing­s and accessorie­s.
