Direct Create is a cultural intelligence and design practice based in New Delhi. We build art and craft programs for national landmarks, hotels, real estate developers, and retail brands, carrying a project from cultural research through to commissioned, fabricated work.
The studio's work begins in the field and ends in a room. Research in a sacred grove in Kodagu, at a loom in Bhuj, on a coffee estate in the Western Ghats. Installed work in a lobby, a suite, a landscape, a threshold. We are looking for an artist and 3D fabricator to carry a project across that distance.
