Frequently Asked Questions
General Information
Recreation House operates at the intersection of design, material intelligence, and craftsmanship. Working between Kochi and Bombay, we develop furniture defined by structural clarity, studied proportion, and expressive geometry; pieces that hold the presence of sculpture and the purpose of function.
We treat wood as a living archive. Every grain, knot, and tonal shift becomes a guide, shaping each piece through dialogue and attentiveness. Salvaged timber, revived remnants, and overlooked fragments are reimagined into objects of permanence and artistry.
Bold silhouettes, saturated colours, and vintage-informed patterns move through an architectural lens. The result is furniture that is sculptural yet deeply usable, expressive yet restrained, contemporary yet rooted in timeless craft. Ultimately, unmistakably exuberant.
Recreation House was born from a resonance with the emotional life of objects - a pull toward vintage forms, architectural clarity, the thrill of a bold detail, and the quiet power of the handmade. These were elements that felt familiar, yet deserving of reinterpretation.
Here, ‘recreation’ is an act of renewal: an exploration of how the old can inform the new, how the inherited language of craft can respond to contemporary desires for expression, colour, and form. It is the practice of taking things with history and giving them modern purpose.
