Over the last ten years, an architecture design and built firm ABARI was established to re-appropriate and revive traditional building crafts to cater to the modern sensibility. ABARI has developed a robust supply chain which seamlessly integrates farmers, craftsmen and consumers while producing products and rehabilitating acres of acres of lands by planting bamboo. This presentation discusses the process of creating this supply chain where design and craft, livelihood and sustainability intersect.

The workshop aims to cultivate a love for bamboo as a material, as well as share its benefits, environmental impacts and future-proof characteristics.

This presentation will pose critical questions through a process of dialogue and inquiry into case studies of interactions of aspiring design practitioners and communities from different crafts sectors across India (for example, weaving communities across Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat, Kalamkari artisans from different traditions, shadow puppeteer communities , Assamese tribes who do intergenerational weaving). It will explore on the importance of moving beyond ethnographic crafts documentation from an outsiders’ perspective and immersing into the study of social ecology of crafts.
