THOUGHT OVER DESIGN
WEBSITE DESIGNER
Website Design
"The House of Things is for me an amazing vitrine of what Indian designers and craftsmen can provide for the best of style, design, quality, for a modern living without denying the standards of a rich heritage. Being a designer myself I do believe in the quote "less is more", but the "less" should always been of quality, proportion, best materials, comfort and style. The House of Things represents all these aspects with on top of that an amazing team dedicated to home living, demonstrating a sharp selection of furniture and accessories."
Dominique Jean-Lavabre
Interior and space designer
"The key is to pick something unique that they will not get easily in the market, or something handcrafted that speaks of the rich Indian heritage. The House of Things has plenty of options to choose from."
