Origami Installations for Modern Luxury Interiors
Moving beyond paper, we work with artists to transform rooms using kirigami and origami, creating sculptural lighting that breathes life into architectural voids.
A diptych showing two views of a cascading origami-inspired light installation made from parchment. Suspended in a triple-height atrium, it introduces softness and a sense of weightless movement into an architectural void.
This composition showcases two distinct folded art installations. On the left, a piece titled 'Pravaah' blends origami with Shibori dyeing to retell a mythological story, while on the right, Subodh Kerkar's iconic chili sculptures add a pop of color and form.
The cover image for our "Art of the Fold" series, this shot captures the intricate beauty of a folded paper installation. Each crease and curve is intentional, creating a form that is both modern and rooted in a centuries-old craft.
A delicate kirigami installation crafted from parchment leather, titled 'Anugraha'. Positioned near a staircase, its quiet and textural form adds a layer of tactility to a space designed for movement and reflection.
The 'Radha Krishna Raas Leela' installation, a collaboration with artist Ankon Mitra, viewed from a different angle. This perspective highlights how the folded forms, inspired by Shibori dyeing, create a divine dance of space and form within the atrium.

This view showcases the origami installation in context with the home's interior architecture. The organic, flowing shapes of the artwork provide a soft counterpoint to the clean lines of the glass balustrade and wood-paneled ceiling.
About this collection
These installations are not mere room accents; they are structural interventions. When we plan these folded forms, we consider the weight, the light interaction, and the structural integrity of your ceiling or atrium to ensure the art feels like it belongs to the building’s anatomy.
We approach the folding arts as a method of architectural storytelling. By partnering with artists such as Ankon Mitra, we move traditional paper-folding techniques into large-scale, permanent installations.
Materiality remains central to our practice. We move away from paper to use more durable, resonant materials like parchment, leather, and Shibori-dyed fabrics. This shift allows us to create lighting features that add texture and depth to modern, clean-lined spaces. Each piece is designed for its specific site, whether it hangs in a triple-height atrium, floats near a grand staircase, or serves as a feature in a family lounge.
Our process involves a deep study of the site’s light and volume. We prioritize how natural light plays against the folds, causing the shadows to shift as the day progresses. This brings a sense of movement into a static environment, making the architecture feel alive. Whether we are retelling a myth through abstract shapes or simply adding a tactile layer to a glass-and-steel void, our goal is to merge art directly into the fabric of the home.
