When Ayush Kasliwal and Mike Dreeben founded their company, AKMD Collection earlier this year, surely they had no clue success would have come so quickly. Grown out of a thirteen-year friendship and continued informal design collaborations the two are celebrating something big this month - launching a new website with all their current stock and a the success of a Fab.com sale. As Mike tells us, it's sort-of like they're celebrating their coming out.

AKMD Collection celebrates a mutual interest in fine traditional craft practices and how objects could inform contemporary design. This collaboration explores materials and methods utilizing production in Jaipur and Chicago. Their range consists of wooden furniture, leather bags and boxes, metals and more.
