Nihaarika Arora is an industrial designer and design lead working across consumer product categories, with an ongoing exploration of form, structure, and everyday utility. One project that exemplifies this approach is the Modern Geometry Jewelry Stand , designed exclusively for the MoMA Design Store and distributed internationally since June 2024.

Rather than approaching the piece as a decorative object, Arora treated the jewelry stand as a small architectural system. The design is composed of two powder-coated iron planes that interlock without fasteners, forming a self-supporting three-dimensional structure.

Geometric perforations provide intuitive organization for earrings, while integrated hooks accommodate necklaces and bracelets. The object remains compact, tool-free, and adaptable to a wide range of domestic environments, while maintaining a sculptural presence when not in use.
