Bespoke brands, curated collectibles, and design discoveries at the AD Design Show 2025
A special draw at the AD Design Show is the AD Discoveries section where one-of-a-kind pieces by designers, makers, artists, and independent brands are housed under one roof. In its second edition now, it highlights the beauty of handcrafted, the charm of custom products, and the striking beauty of sculptural objects. Here’s a sneak peek of this year’s lineup.
Artisanal Abode is a furniture design studio that envisions aligning creativity with craft-based design. It was born out of love for the uniqueness of handmade products, respect for Indian craftsmen and their largely untapped artisanal techniques. What started as a college project for founder Upasana Jain, has today taken shape as a boutique design house that combines diverse materials, artisanal workmanship with timeless form. Each creation is soulfully handcrafted, fusing traditional techniques and skills of production with modern design. It works with some of the finest craftsmen to reinterpret age-old techniques like bidriware, metalware, goldleafing, woodcarving, etc. It will display the Weaving in Metal collection reimagining the traditional craft of basket weaving in stainless steel, brass and copper.
