"It isn't news anymore that one needs to protect the environment, and using recycled products is contributing a tiny bit in that direction. Of course, it also has a lovely quaint charm to it, which is what attracts customers to buy these products," explained Bohra.
But it is hard to quantify what is exactly working more or less.
"I believe there is a market for everything. Different individuals think and understand design differently. And thus, at any given point one can find customers for all kinds of products," said Bohra, whose tryst with decor started as a design journalist.
She established Chromakey Designs as a designer stationery brand in 2011, but it has grown and now hosts works of both established designers and young ones.
