The Spiral Ark Project
is housed in a converted cashew-nut roasting factory in the
peaceful countryside of Southern Goa, five minutes drive from
Palolem Beach and ten minutes down the road from Agonda.
Overlooking emerald green paddy fields, the large airy rooms with
their red Mangalore roof-tiles and thick white-washed walls keep
cool throughout the year, providing a stunning space for
retail.
Many of our handicrafts, clothes and furniture are designed and
manufactured in our
onsite carpentry and tailoring workshops.
Our
kitchens, deli and café,
serve
healthy organic food.
We source environmentally friendly, natural, organic, seasonal,
homemade, handmade and tribal items throughout India, with a view
to designing practical, simple, durable and beautiful products. We
work and train local artisans as well as collaborate with
cooperatives working in other parts of the sub-continent, so as to
make living joyful and harmonious.
At this point in the spiral of evolution, we need to create an
ark...a micro eco-system, in which all can live in balance and
harmony with nature. We have planted a small seed and hope you will
enjoy visiting us and help to nurture it's growth.
You are most welcome...
