Rangnaarang is a collective studio founded by Reetika Panigrahi and Kajol Deorukhkar, two designers united by a shared vision: to give new life to forgotten materials and overlooked objects.

Reetika is an alumni of NID, AP whose practice is deeply rooted in the intricate beauty of nature's microcosm. She often collaborates with artisans and craftsmen, highlighting the craftsmanship through modern artistic expression. With a strong emphasis on sustainability, she approaches design challenges with a resourceful and innovative mindset. Her "jugaad" philosophy enables her to find creative solutions and repurposed materials, minimizing waste and maximizing impact.

Kajol is a Visual Designer and Illustrator from NID, AP. Her artistic and design practice takes inspiration and revolves around documenting and revisiting memories. With a sentiment for capturing personal stories through analog methods. Her mediums range from textiles to animation and video essays, and most recently, ceramics. She finds inspiration in the small, quiet moments of people, of bugs and of love.

We are a textile studio based in Jaipur that practices sustainability. We use the tiny fabric waste, usually the seams and trims that get left out during the process of making a garment in the stitching units. These tiny fabrics are most of the time either burnt or stuffed into mattresses and cushions in the industry. In this, the beauty of the fabric disappears to nothing. At rangnaarang, we repurpose the fabric and its memories, and give them a new life.
