Studio Ek Inch is a contemporary label that honors India’s craft heritage through a restrained, modern design language. Rooted in vintage textiles and artisanal traditions, our work moves between memory and modernity — where timeless craftsmanship meets quiet, thoughtful form.
Drawing inspiration from the layered textures of everyday India, we look to the earthy palettes of rural landscapes, the expressive vocabulary of tribal craft, and the calm precision of urban minimalism. Each piece is created with a deep respect for the hands that shape it — artisans whose discipline and knowledge form the core of our practice.
Textiles, for us, are more than material; they are vessels of memory. We reinterpret these stories through considered experimentation in proportion, structure, and process, resulting in garments that feel intimate, purposeful, and enduring. Craft is never decorative — it is fundamental.
Our pillars of craft — embroidery, crochet and knitting, and leather — embody a blend of heritage and contemporary utility. Embroidery reflects the richness of India’s textile traditions; crochet and knitting honour the resilience of craft communities; and leather craft merges ancestral techniques with refined modern silhouettes.
Every element carries a quiet precision and a sense of belonging.
Rooted in culture. Defined by craft. Inspired by everyday India.
