craft movement

The craft movement is a design and manufacturing philosophy that emphasizes handcrafted quality, traditional techniques, and attention to detail over mass production. It emerged as a response to industrialization, valuing the uniqueness and personal touch of artisan-created objects. This movement promotes sustainability, craftsmanship, and individuality, often highlighting local materials and cultural heritage. Its principles are applied across various fields, including architecture, furniture, and decorative arts, encouraging a return to skilled craftsmanship and thoughtful design that resonate with consumers seeking authentic, durable, and aesthetically meaningful products.
