02 / THE QUESTION THAT STARTED IT
The Form Theory began with a simple question: why does well-designed furniture and decor in India either cost a fortune or look like everything else? We design every object in-house and make it in small runs with makers across India — in walnut, cement, ceramic and stone. Each piece is meant to be looked at, and used every day.
