Meet the Designer

Meet the Designer & Founder

With a lifetime background in the global textile industry and a Master’s degree in Textile Design from the prestigious Central Saint Martins in London, UK, Mamta Dewan—a professional designer and mother of two—wanted to build something different. Frustrated by a play environment heavily dominated by batteries, screens, and low-quality plastic toys, she set out to create an imaginative alternative that sparks real-world, social storytelling.

Mamta’s exclusive designs pair story-rich illustrations with space-saving concepts, enabling collaborative play and creativity to flourish in modern homes. Under her creative direction, Role Play adapts traditional Indian textile crafts to meet the needs of modern, discerning parents who appreciate design, durability, and safety.

The Guidance of Detail

As Leonardo da Vinci famously said, "Details make perfection, and perfection is not a detail." This exact philosophy is the guiding principle behind every stitch we place. From our iconic, towering standing play tents to our innovative hanging doorway storefronts and noise-free sit-in foam cars, we craft every detail to personalize your child's room and bring long-lasting happiness.

Thank you for letting us be a part of your playroom. We are delighted to welcome you to the global Role Play family as we celebrate our heritage, our craftsmanship, and the pure, simple joy of childhood.
