Ganga Maki Textile – Studio Mumbai

2017

Tucked in the foothills of the Himalayas sits the Ganga Maki Textile Studio – a small ensemble of buildings by Studio Mumbai. In Bhogpur, near Rishikesh, this weaving facility is, like the textiles produced here, handmade, intimate and sensitive. If craft is, as writer Teleri Lloyd-Jones defined, ‘a language of materials, provenance and making’, this building is exemplary. Founding principal Bijoy Jain and his team have innovatively and carefully combined different natural materials to produce a finely textured, functioning facility.
