The Essentialist
As a design firm, the main focus of the studio has been on design consultation to different manufacturers. The self-initiated designs that were made into prototypes, were acknowledged and people got really interested in buying them. Initially, manufacturing began on a small scale.
Eventually things really changed when Saif Faisal, Owner, Saif Faisal Design Workshop, pursued Bidriware after an enlightening conversation with Patricia Urquiola. The studio developed some interesting and innovative techniques in the almost stagnant 700 year old craft to create accessories, jewellery and a series of tables - 'Qaiser series'.
Saif Faisal is an 'Essentialist'; with his focus on beautiful, sensitive, thoughtful and meaningful design with sustainable aesthetics; design that doesn't follow any fads or fashions.
