ADDING A GOLDEN TOUCH TO YOUR HOME - OCHRE AT HOME

With a contemporary design aesthetic, and an interplay of rich materials, Sweta Arya, Founder & Designer, Ochre at Home along with her husband and the entire team, are all set with their latest collection for the season. In conversation with Urban Melange, Sweta talks about her latest collection and her journey till now.

Tell us about your background and how did you end up in the furniture industry?

I was practicing interior design when I got married to Ajay. I convinced him to start a furniture design company in 2015 where he as well as other designers used to design for my brand.

You're known for innovative and trendy design. So, anything new for the upcoming season? 

This year, we worked on a very new-age urban line of furniture for the upcoming season. there's a fusion of materials. There's a lot of texture and fabric to see that we have used for pieces. We are playing with textures. We are playing with abstract curves. And some of the inspirations are from architecture, and there's one upcoming collection which is inspired by sea corals.

What has been the biggest challenge for you till now?
