Āhuatanga Motuhake
Project- A unique wall art for a large dining room in a 5000 sq ft South Mumbai apartment

Challenge- To keep the dining space fresh and vibrant

Solution- We created 50 semitransparent handcrafted glasslike flowers in pink and orange, placed strategically to interact with natural and artificial light, casting dramatic shadows. Each piece is unique, adding emotion and value to the space, transforming it into a showstopper of art and experience

Hangarau Whakanao
The Blossoms are handcrafted using mixed media, featuring exquisite hues, textures, and a unique glass-like effect. Unlike molded pieces, each one is individually made, adding vibrancy to any space while being easy to maintain. They are broadly made in three different sizes. They are mounted with durable SS 304 metal fittings with a PVD rose gold finish to prevent rust. Designed to resemble elegant stems rather than hardware, these fittings seamlessly blend into the artwork. The height of the fittings is varied to enjoy the different levels in the artwork. The flowers were placed from 6ft upwards on the wall to avoid anyone bumping into it.
Wero Hoahoa
The biggest challenge was finding a material that felt delicate yet was not as fragile as glass. After extensive research and testing, we developed a unique mixed-media composition that balanced durability with elegance. Achieving the right translucency and texture required multiple prototypes. Production was another hurdle, as handcrafted elements needed precision and consistency. Socially, we aimed to reintroduce artisanal craftsmanship in a market dominated by mass production.
Rangahau
This project explores experimental design research, focusing on innovative material combinations for durable, striking decor. We found no existing solution balancing delicacy and durability like glass. Using material experimentation and user feedback, we refined aesthetics and function. Handmade blossoms proved more engaging than mass-produced decor, interacting beautifully with light. This research supports artisanal craftsmanship, reinforcing the value of personalized, maintenance-friendly art.
Whakaaweawe
Nature has always been a profound source of inspiration The dining room the soul of a home where memories are made had to be a showstopper We drew from nature's vibrancy choosing flowers in full bloom larger than life exuding energy. Each handcrafted piece is unique like in nature, interacts with light creating dynamic shadows and reflections. The result, an everevolving experience that sparks emotion and transforms the space into a visual delight.
Roanga o te Kaupapa
The project started in March 2022 and finished in June2022
Rerenga Mahi
This piece is designed for effortless interaction. It can be easily mounted using durable fittings that blend seamlessly into the design. Light plays beautifully on its surface, enhancing its vibrant hues and glass like textures. Unlike conventional decor, it adds depth and movement to a space, transforming with different angles and lighting. Its handmade nature ensures uniqueness, making each piece a statement. Built for longevity, it resists rust and remains easy to clean and maintain.
