Kolam & Rangoli
Dot grids and single unbroken lines, drawn on doorsteps before sunrise.
A family is a motif with a history, drawn to a consistent line weight. We do not publish one-off designs — everything we make belongs to one of these ten, which is why a pattern you like on a tee can be found on a pillow cover, a phone case and the book it was drawn for.
Dot grids and single unbroken lines, drawn on doorsteps before sunrise.
Radial symmetry built from a compass and a straight edge, not from a filter.
Five tiles, one strapwork, a thousand years of Persian and Timurid walls.
One band, no ends, crossing over and under in strict alternation.
Dense fills, hard edges, and the confidence of solid black.
Moon phases, star charts and the instruments people used to read them.
Radiolaria, medusae and diatoms, drawn the way a microscope shows them.
Single-weight plant drawing, the way a field notebook does it.
One path with no choices, or many paths with one answer.
Thick lines, big fields, nothing smaller than a marker tip.
