The mind carves out special places to keep its favourite memories alive. But what about our physical treasures?

ABOUT Aardra
We call it aardra and that means new or fresh in Sanskrit. To us, it also means giving much-loved newspaper a long overdue makeover. It's about weaving used newspaper into products to carry around, take home and hold precious memories.
At aardra, we upcycle. So it's not turned into papier-mache or pulp. Instead, we make sure the newspaper can no longer absorb moisture. We then roll and manoeuvre tubes of the paper into clever patterns of warps and wefts, before priming and finishing. What you get is a product that not only looks good and strong but can also be immediately used.
