The brand derives its passion for creation from the rich traditions, architecture, colours, patterns and surfaces, and marries the inherent Indianness with the elements from all of its favourite places.
The Indian consumer has had a huge shift in their preferences. They are more open and perceptive, and the brand strives to create products that will fulfil the desires of the aspirational Indian. The colour palette, the premium materials, the amalgamation in design, and the numerous influences are put together carefully and maintain a delicate balance which makes it Indian and global at the same time.
According to Rachna Jaiswal, “We believe in signatures, as opposed to fashion and trends. We create products that speak of style, and not the latest trend. Our products speak of our design aesthetics, and the finesse of our craftsmen, who have honed their craft through years of back-breaking practice and hard work. Our signature lies in the premium materials that are used in the crafting of our products.”
Pipabox intends to incorporate more love for the rich textures and awe-inspiring traditional techniques in the designs to make them the true global Indian designs. Veering the traditional crafts towards consumers who value the heritage and are sensitised design-wise in order to enjoy the products that we create. They celebrate the heritage through their craft and strive to create more products that will carry the torch forward.
