neem livingby Shades of India

The Neem tree stands tall in the Indian landscape. It filters the strong light of the sun and creates a play of shadow. We take our rest, lie and dream.

Neem grew out of this meditation. It is a global lifestyle brand that reveres nature, its restless creativity, its endless permutations and forms, the artful play of light and shade, and the bounteous gift of air and repose.The collection evokes peace and serenity in an increasingly chaotic world. It reflects a less formal approach to home textiles and leisure wear. The casual layering of a bed or the crumpled cotton of a dress gives a sense of relaxed luxury and of rumpled aristocratic ease.

The philosophy behind the collection springs from a belief in the fusion of cultures. Mandeep Nagi is both the creator of the collection and Design Director of Shades of India, one of India’s most creative textile companies, with a record of awards in the US, France and India. Mandeep’s passion has been to master the wealth of India’s craft traditions and to see how these can be put to a contemporary use. She has done this across collections of home, clothes and accessories. Driven by her love for detailing, texturing fabrics in unique ways, playing with contrasts in colours and layering, she also has a strong sense of social responsibility which is visible in all her work.

Neem is thankful of bringing together two sides of the world, of joining hands in collaboration and of inheriting a lineage of artisan crafts and traditions. It is thankful as well of the possibilities the collaboration opens out.
