Asian Art Furniture

Asian Art Furniture is located in the Sai Sewa Sangh Chawl within the Narendra Apartment area of Santacruz West. Our workspace is usually covered in a thin layer of fine sawdust because there is almost always someone cutting or sanding something. It is the kind of place where you can hear the sound of hammers and saws from the street. We have various pieces of wood leaning against the walls and half-finished frames waiting for their next step. The space is a bit cramped but that is just the nature of making furniture in this part of Santacruz. We have a big heavy table in the center where we do all the assembly and measuring. It is not like a modern store with bright lights and fancy carpets. It is a real workshop with the smell of varnish and fresh timber hanging in the air. We keep our blueprints and sketches pinned to a wooden board near the entrance. Sometimes the rain makes it a bit damp inside but we just keep working through it. The neighbors in the Chawl are used to the noise we make during the day. We have been at Narendra Apartment for quite some time now so we have a routine that works for us. It is hard work and our hands are usually a bit rough by the end of the day. We just focus on building things that stay together.
