The Swayam Stool by Atelier Ashiesh Shah is a cluster of weightless marble stems appearing intertwined and that conjoin into a circular seat. Louise Bourgeois’s ‘Maman’ inspired this functional sculpture that can be placed in pairs or sit in isolation. The form, born from a clay figurine is carefully balanced but imbalanced in perception, a play of dynamic perspectives.

After pursuing a degree in Interior Architecture, Ashiesh Shah began his career in New York City in the early 2000’s before finding his way back to India where he stirred change in the perception of design nation-wide through his rather intriguing outlook on Indian minimalism and what it entails. Finding a semblance between art, craftsmanship and design, Shah has been spearheading his own design firm Ashiesh Shah Architecture + Design, handling various high-end design projects in India and beyond that resonate with his characteristic of being a tastemaker in the architectural world. His rooted upbringing and passion for Indian craftsmanship has resulted in a composition of inventiveness through Atelier Ashiesh Shah, a collaborative extension of his design studio, born from a vision to blur the boundaries between art and design in 2017. Empowering the ‘karigar’, The Atelier aims to work alongside award-winning master craftsmen from all over the country to create design objects honouring artisanship layered with a contemporary flair.
