Collaborative Spaces for Student and Designer Projects
We open our studio doors to students and emerging designers to turn sustainable fashion concepts into reality. Whether you need a space to experiment or guidance on natural dye techniques, you will find a community here ready to support your creative journey.
This is the beautiful outcome of a collaboration with a student from the London College of Fashion. Using our one-step dyes, she created this stunning textile collage that speaks the language of our interconnectedness with nature.
"I'm making a book about the human connection to the natural world." A fashion student from London shares how our one-step dye powders made her dyeing process easier and more convenient for her project.
Meet Amrutha, a passionate textile design student who created the 'AquaMen Ensemble' for us. Her love for nature inspired her to create a collection that echoes the importance of water conservation.
The 'AquaMen Ensemble' is a menswear collection designed to spread awareness about preserving water. The designs explore the vital bond between humans and water ecosystems.

We are so proud of our former intern, Jagruti. After working with us during our move to Mysore, she has continued her journey with natural dyes, and we are thrilled to see her prosper.

About Student & Designer Collaborations
When you step into our studio for a collaboration, you are not just renting a workspace. You are getting hands-on access to our standardized one-step natural dye pastes, which remove the need for complex, time-consuming mordanting processes. This means you spend less time prepping chemicals and more time designing, printing, and perfecting your textile collections while learning the science of earth-friendly colors.
Our doors in Mysuru are always open to design students, artists, and textile enthusiasts who want to move beyond theory and get their hands stained. We function as both a think-tank and a makerspace, providing the resources you need to explore sustainable fashion in a real-world setting.
How We Support Your Work
- Mentorship and Guidance: We have walked the path of natural dyeing and upcycling, and we are here to share what we know. From refining your design concepts to troubleshooting dye results, we provide active mentorship throughout your project timeline.
- Resource Access: Forget the struggle of sourcing raw materials. You get full access to our studio equipment, printing tools, and our proprietary one-step dye pastes, which are designed to simplify the dyeing process for students on a time crunch.
- Conceptual Development: We enjoy helping designers narrate stories through their textiles. Just like our collaboration with students from the London College of Fashion or NIFT designers on the AquaMen Ensemble, we encourage you to tackle meaningful themes like water conservation and ecological health.
The Collaborative Process
We believe in learning by doing. Whether you are working on a final college project, a research collection, or just an independent art piece, we help you align your vision with sustainable practices. We assist with everything from fabric selection—strictly natural fibers like organic cotton and khadi—to the final finishing touches. If you are ready to experiment with shibori, eco-printing, or hand painting, reach out to us with your proposal. Let us see how we can bring your textile narrative to life.
