Today, with the world more interconnected than ever, products must not only meet high standards of quality but also tell compelling stories that resonate universally. Product designer Gunjan Gupta believes firmly in this. When incorporating local elements into their designs, Gupta believes that the crucial question to ask is: how can we translate these elements into a global context?

Her latest collection ""Continuum"" is a series of handmade objects and artworks that breathe new life into traditional Indian crafts from across India. Made in collaboration with philanthropist, businesswoman and craft connoisseur Lekha Poddar, the collection was launched at the recently-held India Art Fair in Delhi and builds on the legacy of ""GG Collectibles,"" which have become quite sought-after by world-renowned collectors.
