## Meet your expert

### My story

We’re Wari Watai, a small design studio from Bangalore—been at this for 10 years now. Honestly, we get a kick out of messing with materials, finding stories in copper, salt, even plain old soil. Our team’s more like a family, always poking around, discovering bits of magic in the process. For us, design’s about feeling—like walking on crunchy leaves, or that rush of coming home. Right now, we’re dreaming up new ways to make these moments even richer, maybe with tech too.

### My work

- **What We Do**: We design sensorial installations, immersive spatial design, art pieces, copper sculpture, visual identity, and narrative experience design.
- **How We Work**: It’s all about playing with materials—no fixed plan. We let each project unfold, guided by small discoveries.
- **Material Exploration**: We’re obsessed with materials—soil, salt, copper. Mixing craft with tech to find new ways of expression.
- **Our Approach**: We want our work to feel like visual poetry, wrapping people in comfort and emotion, a bit like coming home.
- **Experience**: Over 10 years, we’ve built immersive spaces and installations—recently bagged a Blue Elephant at Kyoorius Design Awards.
