Urban Ladder in a recent development announced its partnership with award-winning Architect and Interior Designer, Ashiesh Shah, thereby, making it the first Indian furniture brand to collaborate with an influencer like Ashiesh to design exquisite furniture for Indian homes. Ashiesh will launch four collections for Urban Ladder in the next one year. Each collection will explore a different design style demonstrating and addressing what India needs in terms of design. The idea is to create a strong edit, use local materials like teak wood and cane and explore some of its local fabric dying techniques and combine them with a more contemporary aesthetic. Apart from the basics like chairs, tables, sofas, Ashiesh will bring in some more unconventional pieces of design that he believes should be made available in India at an affordable price. The first collection will be launched in October 2017 as Ashiesh, an astute collector of contemporary art from the Indian sub-continent, has designed spaces which juxtapose objects from vastly different eras and cultures.
