Six distinct voices, brought together by one shared idea.
What happens when six designers are given the same surface, but no expectation to arrive at the same place? Common Ground began with that thought. House of Knots invited six distinct creative voices to approach the rug from entirely personal points of view. There was no common theme to interpret and no visual language to follow. The commonality was the freedom itself. Each designer was given space to make something unmistakably their own, allowing memory, instinct and experience to take shape through craft. What emerged from this is not a collection held together by resemblance, but by individuality. Different memories, different ways of seeing, different stories to tell, all brought together simply by giving each one the space to exist as it is.
Magical Marine Drive
Ali Baldiwala
Magical Marine Drive reflects on one of Bombay’s most enduring rituals, returning to the edge of the city where the sea, skyline and evening light seem to slow everything down.
It holds the feeling of a place that is public yet deeply personal, shaped by movement, memory and countless moments spent along the curve of the coast.
Love in Low Resolution
Kumpal Vaid
Love in Low Resolution looks at memory as something fragmented, small pieces that may feel unclear on their own, but gradually begin to form a larger picture.
Playful and nostalgic, it captures the way certain feelings return slowly, revealing themselves only when we stop trying to see everything at once.
On The Other Side
Sahiba Madan
There is always more than what first appears.
On The Other Side begins with the stillness of the night sky and the kind of quiet that makes us look inward. It reflects on how a space, an object or even a moment can hold layers that are not immediately visible, leaving room for imagination, memory and personal interpretation.
Eye on the Wall — Priyanka Itadkar & Falguni Bhatia
Act of Quad - Priyanka Itadkar & Falguni Bhatia
Eye on the Wall begins with a simple question: what happens when a rug is no longer expected to stay in the background?
The piece reflects Act of Quad’s instinct to challenge the ordinary, giving a familiar object a new presence and inviting us to reconsider how we see and experience it.
Fluid Geometry
Arun Shekhar (Humming Tree)
Fluid Geometry grows from Arun Shekhar’s memories of Kerala: its backwaters, coconut groves, boats, shifting light and slower rhythms of life.
Rather than reproducing the landscape literally, the piece holds onto what remains after leaving: fragments, impressions and a sense of place carried forward through memory.
Memoirs of 102
Nishita Kamdar
Memoirs of 102 returns to Nishita Kamdar’s own home, Flat No.102, through the small moments that made it hers.
A favourite corner, conversations that lingered, a window she found herself returning to, ordinary details that gathered meaning over time, becoming part of how she remembers home and the sense of belonging it continues to hold.
