How sculptural wooden doors are becoming statement pieces in modern homes

Bengaluru-based design studio Kosh is gaining attention for its 'Sabha' collection, which features sculptural wooden doors and decor pieces. The collection emphasizes handmade craftsmanship and the use of various wood types to create statement pieces for modern homes.
Why it matters
This reflects a growing trend in interior design toward artisanal, narrative-driven home decor that prioritizes craftsmanship over mass production.
Wood has long been a favourite decor choice for artefacts, partitions, and now even as a panelling material. But there is a quiet shift in using wooden doors as centrepieces in urban homes.
From gothic motifs to facial amalgamations, we look at the latest collection, ‘Sabha’, created by Kosh, a Bengaluru-based design studio, known for its exploration of handmade craft, materiality and storytelling. Drawing on the concept of a sabha as a space, sculptural wooden doors and décor pieces reflect on memory and belonging, using tactility to create an impression.
Founded in 2007 by Nidhi and Ketan Gupta, curating ‘Sabha’ has been a creative process. “We began to think about how a home gathers things, how it holds them quietly, until they begin to define the space on their own,” says Nidhi.
