MK : It took me around one week to design this concept
MK : I designed this piece for my gallery of Arts & Crafts
MK : I intend to produce my work myself

MK : It was purely my idea & no one influenced me.
MK : Art Lovers, creative clients who appreciate heritage & cultural pieces
MK : It is a unique piece as the old coffee grinder is difficult to find these days.
MK : The name Mabrada, which means coffee cooler, was reproduced to form one of the legs of the console & thats how I chose to use it.
