Bespoke commissions · India
Made for a place, not placed into one.
Web of Life creates one-of-a-kind and bespoke works across sculpture, collectible furniture, objects and spaces. Each commission begins with material, context and a conversation about what the work needs to become.
Start a commission
What can be commissioned
Original work, developed for its context.
Material territories
The material is part of the brief.
Stone
Granite, coquina and fossil stone, alongside other stones evidenced in the catalogue. Grain, mass, inclusions and surface guide the direction of the work.
Timber & solid wood
East Indian walnut, rosewood, teak, neem and charred timber where the piece and source material support it.
Material selection depends on the piece, scale and context; not every material is appropriate for every commission.
Scale & customisation
A direction, not a reproduction.
Dimensions, material, site, function, sculptural direction and architectural context can shape a commission. Existing works may begin a conversation around material, scale or direction, but a bespoke piece is developed for its own context rather than copied as a template.

Commission process
A clear path, responsive to the work.
- 01
Initial enquiry
Share the setting, ambition and practical needs that bring the project to the studio.
- 02
Context & material
We discuss scale, site, function and the material territory that may suit the work.
- 03
Direction & feasibility
A sculptural direction is considered alongside what the material and workshop process can support.
- 04
Development & making
The piece develops through drawing, material decisions and making without erasing the character already present.
- 05
Completion & planning
Delivery, handling and installation requirements are considered for the finished work and its destination.
Timelines depend on material, scale, complexity and workshop process and are discussed individually for each commission.
Delivery & installation
The final movement is planned with the piece.
Delivery, handling and installation requirements are planned according to the work, material, scale and destination.
One practice · two places
Auroville & Hyderabad
Web of Life operates through its founding studio in Auroville and its workshop in Hyderabad. Both belong to one material practice and one continuing conversation around making.
