BE A CHANGEMAKER
1st humanes are changemakers. A group of admired and loved artisans, designers, artists, models, photographers, digital creators, hand made & sustainable slow/conscious brands. Together we explore and evolve with communities in great places which practise their traditional craft to help co-create valuable and useful objects. This helps us offer choices which can shift us towards a slower lifestyle for a brighter future.
COLLABORATE
Collaborating with artisanal skills and established designers & artists is to get the best of both worlds. When traditional wisdom and cutting edge design meet - we get magic. This kind of cross-pollination between ways of thinking paves a path for a truly innovative ecosystem where everybody inclusively wins. It's not just an economic win - it is fuelled by the growth of localised geographies that mutually develop and have an overall impact on circular value creation for sustainable self-reliance.
CONNECT
This kind of equitable approach can help prevent the depletion and extinction of this knowledge and ability that is so rich and abundant in India. When multiple such collaborations come together it creates a larger momentum that has scale and is easily adaptable into the already existing plethora of such partnerships that already exist between so many similar minded people in India.
CHANGE
We engage in numerous ways with interns, students, residents, freelancers - part/full time & evangelists who believe in this alternative narrative to inclusive development which is not urban-centric but ubiquitously present our country's abundantly beautiful landscape of craftsmanship which is unique and connected with the ecology.

You can make a difference to many lives. Apply for our 1st humanes programme - if we really like your work and ideology.Since we’re rooted within smaller communities in remote areas the challenges of access and uncertainty are inherent to our mission. This is why we are engaged in creating a close knit and powerful advisory group with mentors, teachers, practitioners, designers and artists - The true evangelists of the brighter future for everyone with equity, empathy and ability to create solutions for these unique challenges.
We are addressing the need for circularity - right from capacity building, training and co-creation with rural artisans & creators to make products that are well designed and great quality - to prompt a lifestyle change that is good for the environment, the community that makes them and also the brands custodians who buy these products. To help shift to a simple & easy lifestyle for more sustainable choices.
