About
House of Santal
House of Santal is a contemporary design gallery and online platform presenting South Asian craftsmanship through a forward-looking design lens. Founded in New York by designer and curator Raksha Sanikam, the platform brings together leading and emerging designers, studios, and master artisans from across the region, each curated for their ability to bridge legacy craft traditions with contemporary form. House of Santal’s curatorial perspective is rooted in process, provenance, and authorship, highlighting both collectible works and exceptionally crafted design objects. Through exhibitions, commissions, and cultural programming, House of Santal creates new pathways for exchange between South Asia and the international design stage. Its physical gallery and online platform offer collectors, architects, and design patrons access to distinctive works, ranging from limited-edition and made-to-order pieces to thoughtfully designed objects defined by quality, materiality, and intent.
