Almari (In-built cabinet)
Design Innovation and Craft Resource Centre, CEPT University
Ahmedabad, India
This almari was made in the kitchen of a residence. It had a wooden frieze painted in the same colours as the doors. A top board of a damaged sandook was removed and fixed on the top of the almari; both as an element of decoration and to preserve the memory of the sandook in material form.
