Resolved to create a luxuriant brand of products unlike any other, the budding metal-molder set up a permanent home and workshop in New Delhi.

He reasons the connection between a work and its creator is \u201ccritical,\u201d in the sense that it allows simple objects to morph into meaningful, prized heirlooms that can be treasured for a lifetime.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">We chatted with the designer and father of twins about his chief source of inspiration, what sets his brand apart, and what to expect next from his ever-growing range.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Most of your work appears to be organic and inspired by nature. Is there a sentimental reason behind that?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">I grew up spending much time outdoors, so I am sure my fascination with nature must have come from that\u2014I have always been intrigued by the cycle of life, death and regeneration, the idea of transformation. Also, I am a firm believer that the imperfect is perfect, as it reflects our individuality and humanity. Nature is my greatest muse and never fails to surprise or delight.\u00a0There is a wonderful quote by Georgia O&#8217;Keefe on the subject of a flower as a microcosm for the universe: <em>&#8220;When you hold a flower in your hand and really look at it, it is your world for that moment.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0 Taking something as fragile as a natural element and rendering it in metal forces you to examine it anew.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.33.54-PM.png\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-134831\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-134831\" src=\"https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.33.54-PM.png\" alt=\"Vertebrae Candleholder\" width=\"296\" height=\"692\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.33.54-PM.png 296w, https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.33.54-PM-128x300.png 128w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 296px) 100vw, 296px\" \/><\/a>What do you feel sets your creations apart from their direct competitors (i.e., those of other luxe home decor brands)?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">2014 marks the 25th year of our brand. Over that time I have enjoyed, every day, waking up and going into my design studios in New York and New Delhi with the intent to create something beautiful and meaningful. Most of our products are made by hand in our workshop in India, by myself and artisans that care deeply about their craft. We are not only the designers, but also the manufacturers, and you can see the care, quality and thought we put into our pieces.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>How do you manage to make products that are durable and made of metal, yet are surprisingly lightweight?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Rivets, molten drops, butterflies and other elements of our motifs are brought to life by the artisans constructing them. If you look carefully at each piece, no two are ever exactly the same. You can literally see the specific hand, unique to each artisan, through the bends, folds and curves of the metal. We work very hard to use the highest quality metals that are pliable yet resilient. I work with materials that are beautiful, durable and will stand the test of time.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Are there any items you make that look simple on the outside, yet are actually quite difficult to manufacture? How about any items that appear intricate, yet in reality are relatively easy to make?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Most of our pieces appear deceptively easy. They all have several processes which are layered together to create the final result. One of our most time-intensive collections is \u201cMolten.\u201d It seems simple in appearance, but each metal drop has to be hand dropped in its liquid metal state, balanced on the thin edge of the rim of the piece and cooled before the next drop is set. In the end, it\u2019s worth the time because the Molten drops create a beautiful texture that add dimension to the collection.<b>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Describe the overall theme of your upcoming Fall 2014 line, and how it is different from your past collections.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.36.05-PM.png\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-134833\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-134833 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.36.05-PM.png\" alt=\"Rivet Pitcher\" width=\"462\" height=\"566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.36.05-PM.png 513w, https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.36.05-PM-244x300.png 244w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Fall 2014 is an exciting moment for our brand. We are introducing a new tabletop collection which harkens back to my first trip to India 25 years ago, when I witnessed talented craftsmen making simple tools and objects using age-old techniques. The collection is called \u201cRivet\u201d as it is a fusion of hand-hammered stainless steel with actual rivets that hold the pieces together [the Rivet pitcher is pictured on the left]. It\u2019s very utilitarian but elegant and functional. I have also designed 12 table lamps inspired by new and existing motifs. I wanted the lighting to reflect my love of sculpture and exude beauty from every angle. I worked very hard to offer the market something new and fresh, an opportunity to bring the outdoors, in, illuminating any room of the home.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Are there any particular pieces in the collection that you would like to highlight (possibly ones whose designs deviate from what you are known for, or ones that you are especially proud of)?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">My \u201cRock\u201d collection was released just this spring and people have been responding very well to it. It\u2019s a departure for me on some level, as I\u2019ve incorporated more architectural and art references into the motif than usual. It is still a nature-inspired line as we focused on the rock as a form and object in nature. I think it all came together just beautifully.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.01.16-PM.png\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-134803\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-134803\" src=\"https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.01.16-PM.png\" alt=\"Rock Cake Stand by Michael Aram\" width=\"959\" height=\"628\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.01.16-PM.png 959w, https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.01.16-PM-300x196.png 300w, https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.01.16-PM-90x60.png 90w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 959px) 100vw, 959px\" \/><\/a><em>Rock Cake Stand<\/em><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.04.19-PM1.png\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-134849\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-134849\" src=\"https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.04.19-PM1.png\" alt=\"Mermaid Bowl by Michael Aram\" width=\"940\" height=\"614\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.04.19-PM1.png 940w, https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.04.19-PM1-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/newwebdev.wordpress-developer.us\/hauteresidence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-04-at-7.04.19-PM1-90x60.png 90w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/a><em>Mermaid Bowl<\/em><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Can you give us a small sneak peek into your spring 2015 collection?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Spring 2015 will be exciting, as we are unveiling an entirely new collection inspired by great structures and palaces from across the globe.
