Discovery
Discovery
A quiet quarter of makers, tucked behind Mahim's busy boulevards
rediscovered for a new generation of designers.
Laxmi Industrial Estate was built in 1970 as a manufacturing hub. Fifty years on, its concrete blocks have been quietly colonised by marble cutters, joiners, metalworkers, and textile weavers
forming one of Mumbai's densest concentrations of material craft. This directory is the first public map of its storefronts, maintained in partnership with the tenant's association and powered by VDOlocal.
“You can walk two hundred metres and find every material a house needs
cut, finished, and waiting.”
