Combination of two unique materials, Glass and Wood.
The debut creation within the illustrious "Objects of Change" series, this table stands as an exquisite embodiment of the harmonious marriage between two divergent yet inherently complementary materials: glass and wood. Drawing inspiration from the ever-shifting translucency of water, this extraordinary piece artfully mirrors the dynamic interplay of light, akin to the gentle undulations of ripples traversing the surface of a serene body of water. The intricacy of the table's design mirrors the fluidity and variability inherent in water's translucency, achieved through the meticulous layering of glass and the integration of an adjustable dimming function.

This project unfolds as a transformative journey, with the table standing as the second piece in a meticulously curated series of four. Each instalment is dedicated to delving into the untapped potential of furniture as a catalyst for human interaction, seeking to not only facilitate but elevate these connections. The Thermochromic table, as the Second piece, introduces an innovative interactive feature facilitated by the incorporation of black thermochromic vinyl on its surface.

Splatter
Splatter originated from an extensive investigation into the multifaceted properties of bronze as a material, encompassing a thorough exploration of its casting, moulding, and sculpting attributes. Bronze, renowned for its unique amalgamation of density and pliability, presented a captivating realm ripe for exploration. Through the meticulous examination of the lost wax casting method, we not only delved into the nuances of working with bronze but also embarked on a journey into the realm of wax and its inherent qualities.

Abandoned Artistry:
Celebrating the Mughal era in India through the 'Charpai'
The Mughal Era in India saw the country’s artisan industry flourishing like never before, with a distinct style of design. However, the arrival of European colonisers violently transformed this artistic landscape, compelling Indian craftspeople to reflect the aesthetic preferences of their rulers, leading to hybrid styles such as Indo-Dutch and Indo-Portuguese. With ‘Abandoned Artistry’, Gaurav Jhangiani seeks to rediscover and honour the lost treasures of the Mughal era by focusing on a typology of woven bed known as the Charpai, paired with tapestries that narrate the tale of British colonial rule and the subsequent transition away from traditional Indian furniture. Displayed together, Gaurav seeks to reclaim the essence of India’s unique artistic heritage, and celebrate its enduring legacy.

The final piece in the tetralogy dedicated to exploring the transformative power of furniture. ‘Objects of change’ is a project rooted in the fundamental concept of a human’s innate need for social interaction. It is dedicated to delve into the expansive realm of furniture's capability to not just facilitate but elevate human interaction. Within the intricate design of the bench lies a captivating interactive feature, centered around its cushions. These cushions undergo a revolutionary dyeing process, employing cutting-edge Thermochromic pigments. This avant-garde technique transforms the bench into an interactive canvas, inviting individuals to engage with it in a distinctive and dynamic manner.
