ART D'ECO, who has been collaborating with the Crafts Organisation Khamir for 4 years has been invited to run workshops on recycling and develop products with the local craftsmen out of the ever-increasing waste.

The newly built Khamir Crafts Resource Center is located 10 km from Bhuj, the capital of the desert. the center is a complex made out of mud, as traditionally done in Gujarat (for climatic reasons) combined with traditional carpentry work .
