After more than a decade in the fashion industry, Sakshi Awal found herself questioning the system she once loved. The constant pressure to create more - more collections, more products, more waste - no longer aligned with her values. Rather than leaving fashion behind entirely, she became determined to help reshape it through a more thoughtful, circular approach.

That journey led to the creation of INTGR: a brand built on the belief that the most sustainable products are the ones people truly love and keep for years. For Sakshi, “designed to last” is more than a philosophy - it’s a responsibility rooted in craftsmanship, longevity, and mindful material choices.

Raised in a multi-generational household of women in India, Sakshi grew up valuing the emotional connection people have with the things they keep and pass down. Today, she works closely with small family-owned ateliers in Europe to create timeless pieces designed to become part of someone’s everyday life for years to come - pieces that are carried often, cared for deeply, and eventually passed on with meaning.

Founded in 2025, INTGR is a space for conscious luxury—where timeless form meets thoughtful function. Rooted in circularity, we create minimalist accessories from plastic-free, plant-based, low-impact materials, designed to be used, loved, and kept.

At INTGR, we believe in creating opportunity and connection.

We’ve partnered with the Aasha Foundation, a 503(c)(3) registered non-profit organization that supports young girls and women who have lost their families in Mumbai by providing them with shelter and education. The foundation helps them pursue schooling, university degrees, and professional careers, giving them the tools to build independent lives.

To support this work, 1% of every purchase will support their ongoing programs — from shelter and education to mentorship and daily care.

This partnership is a small way for us to give back, and to help build a future rooted in compassion, dignity, and opportunity.
