FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Golden A' Design Award Explained

Regarding Blur Coffee Table
In the heart of Moradabad, a unique collaboration with Meena artisans brought Blur to life. Months of dedication led to development of a thicker coat of Meena enamel, giving new dimension to the steel mesh. The mesh, perfectly cut, dances with the imperfections of hand-applied enamel, creating a mesmerizing play of focus and illusion. Colors shift and change, appearing and vanishing like fleeting emotions. Blur is a story of perspective and of shaping impermanence into timelessness.
