About Us
“I begin with an idea and then it becomes something else. ” – Pablo Picasso
Namaste,
Started in my parents’ garage back in 2000, with some essential tools and two workmen who were as enthusiastic about the idea as I was. Together we designed, drew, cut, sawed and chiseled our way to create a design company.
Just like new imprints in a publishing house, Knock on Wood is a new dimension by the team at House of Design. We have branched off into a special line of custom created furniture. We are focused on high quality craftsmanship, fine detail and elegant style.
Over the last 18 years, our small ‘idea’ has grown into a state-of-the-art furniture design and manufacturing unit, spread over a few thousand square feet. We are a team of 63 full time employees and several partners and vendors.
We use the best of equipment and latest technology and at present, are one of the few furniture design houses in India with a captive 5 axis router. Knock On Wood is a subsidiary of India’s largest mobility solution creators- JCBL Group. Our manufacturing facility is located on the 40-acre JCBL premises, and draws on the technical expertise, advanced technology and R&D excellence to engineer truly unique designs.
We aim to “enhance life and spirit through timeless, responsible design….. total design.”
We draw our inspiration from the world around but are sensitive to the wishes and lifestyle of our guests who we design for. Whether it is numerous cabinets for a hotel chain or a signature coffee table, which takes centre stage in your living room, our creations will become part of your homes and stories.
We may have grown in scale but we remain a people’s company at heart. A team that is committed to quality and responsible design.
