About Us
Origin One is a collection of everyday stationery and elevated basics made for the design loving global nomad.
Sustainable, conscious and progressively new, each product owns its individual identity. With a mix of artisanal and machine made techniques, the design-led product range balances functionality, durability and fine quality with a unifying contemporary aesthetic.
With proprietary design innovations like the multi-use notebook or the weekly planner—all products are researched, conceptualised and created by Origin One. The constantly growing collection includes planners, diaries, journals, social stationery, curated gift boxes, pencils, thread stitched and wire-bound notebooks, etc. Origin One also offers India’s first stationery subscription service (now in its second year).
Founded by Pushkar Thakur (founder and designer of the New Delhi-based award-winning graphic design studio, The Grafiosi, thegrafiosi.com), Origin One debuted in 2014 with a limited edition lifestyle collection at a pop up store in Goa, India. The inaugural stationery collection was launched at the London Design Festival in 2015. It continues to retail worldwide from originone.in.

"Origin One’s diaries might be the reason you actually write more and type less."
As a millennial who travels often, Origin One really caught my eye. From travel journals to road trip planners and even expedition pencils; this brand creates collections specifically designed with the global nomad in mind

LITTLE FICKLE
Origin One is all brown paper and black and white themes and I love it - it's classic and cool and so far from the usual cutesy stationery boxes that I've come across before and I was so, so excited to dig in I can't even explain!

"...Origin One’s perfect blend of style and utility has made us sigh with contentment..."
"...Now we’re starting to get into the stationery proper. The box included this “heart” card which was quickly purloined by my daughter before I could barely even get a look at it! So, I consider that a hit."

THE GRAFIOSI
The Grafiosi is a New Delhi based studio of art and design, specializing in identity creation and evolution.
The powerful energy of retro funky dining, the psychedelic tech-edge of a nightclub or contemporary chic of a luxury hotel; the understated flamboyance of couture or the neo-classic statement of retail; innovating with the already established or experimenting with start-ups—The Grafiosi is versatile, rad and exclusive.
Constructing, creating and communicating brands through aesthetically empowered and functional design is the focus. We work with industries, brands and individuals building specific, unique and global design vocabularies for each. Since 2005, we have provoked the conventional to foster a global design sensibility for India; The Grafiosi is in constant creation.
THE ARTIST / DESIGNER
Pushkar Thakur is a New Delhi based multihyphenate design and art professional and entrepreneur. In 2005 he set up the multi-award winning studio of design and art, The Grafiosi. As Creative Director and Founder of The Grafiosi, he has won awards from the Association for Retail Environments, American Design Awards, Creativity International Awards, Design And Design and received an Honourable Mention from Harvard Law School. And has been featured in design books, documentaries and journals from Argentina, China, France, Germany, India, Japan, Spain, UK and USA.
His digital art moves from the abstract and fantastical to the figurative and fun; while his installations are more sculptural and interactive, and use a variety of media from analogue to digital. Through street and travel photography he explores the plurality of locations and identities. Illustrations and poster art also form part of his artistic vocabulary. His work has been exhibited in Frankfurt, Istanbul, Kolkata, Mumbai, New York and New Delhi.
His downtime sees him as cyclist, yogi, traveller, dog-lover and hoarder of the strange & wonderful.
