Wrap

17

The concept of wrapping goes back to ancient times — where everything from clothes (the sari, dhoti, turbans etc) to items to be carried were wrapped. You still see many examples of wrapping in India today.

Wrap, a furniture design company started by renowned designer, Gunjan Gupta. It is inspired by the idea of wrapping and blends of traditional and street India with a contemporary and cutting edge design sensibility. The website reflects this highly experimental, interactive and cutting edge nature where each page offers a different way for users to unwrap the content.
