Founder Asif Laskar brings to the table about 20 years of experience working in the conventional designing space to seamlessly marry contemporary design needs with sustainable elements for high functionality and aesthetics.

The Startup develops design solutions from its studio at Guwahati for modern spaces featuring sustainable furniture and fixtures built of engineered bamboo panels and similar eco-friendly materials, which are designed and built to blend smoothly into a contemporary style. The fusion of sustainable materials with conventional building items creates an aesthetic synergy between the two worlds, thereby giving shape to a signature style that is warm and easily identifiable.

 

Conceptualised in 2019, the Startup has so far focused on creating customised commercial spaces and high-profile offices. The team has offered its services to the Dept. of Tourism, Assam, Dept. of Horticulture, Sikkim, NEC Guest House, New Delhi, to name a few. However, as a next step, Assam Ergo has started working on creating a line of quick-assembly sustainable modular furniture as per global design standards for modern homes, workplaces and public spaces. They have already gained ground in this direction with modular rain-shades built of steel and bamboo for the Atal Udyan Park developed by the Guwahati Metropolitan Development Authority.

 

Assam Ergo plans to upgrade its existing facilities to enable mass production to subsequently venture into the retail space through e-commerce platforms and physical stores. The startup continues to use conventional materials of the latest trends in its projects while consciously and strategically injecting sustainable elements in the spaces that it designs and executes to create objects and spaces that are aspirational and unique.
