BANANA LEAF CHAIR

One such morning while chatting with a friend I noticed how very passionately he peeled a banana skin into four layers one by one exposing the creamy fruit and then lovingly gobbled it bite by bite while conversing with me. That’s it! I realized that I had gone into a trance where I felt every move of the peeling process first dissipate, then barge into my brain cells and unravel an image. I abruptly left for my office and hurriedly penned down whatever I had visualized in the flash of that moment. What culminated was another form of design inspired from one of God’s biggest- Nature!
The banana Leaf chair takes inspiration from the banana tree & its fruit. The cushions resemble the golden pulp while the chair side is a hand carved banana tree leaf. The chair back has a lattice inspired by the banana tree fields & how together they create a beautiful play of light & shadow.
