Design-centered events claimed to separate themselves into the sea was a long order. How many different ways can decoration and product brands can demonstrate their products?
Last month, I went to the design pov – makes a new design event debut in Mumbai that not only deploys itself as another exhibition, but a platform that ‘designs differently’ – with high expectations.
And I was not congratulated by a row on the row of neatly organized stalls or pamphlet-rich product displays, but according to a welcome spirit of the search, as I maneuvering through the curate booths at the Jio World Convention Center.
This neutral tone should be a vaid of the bizarre cafe of the purple backyard Crazy Hatter Tea Home, With an interactive game of Fortune-Tailing Tea or Crimson-Dubey monochromatic trip, which could be a bachelor pad, powder room or disco bar, the design of the design genius, the design of Sumes Menon, had explained the design from poetry-because it was one of those rare opportunities to create a brief.
As Menon explains, “It is perfectly experimental, and that’s stimulates everyone. We are looking for new materials, new concepts, things that have not been done before.”
Sumessh Menon’s experienceful, red-enslaved booths reflect a unique task.
Prepares
Decoding is required to fully understand the concept, which lends gravitas to its engagement factor. Visitors felt the need to ask about the story behind the cures. And why is it here? Pov lated the core in the heart of the design – the central concept of the event: Each of India’s most new design studios was given a vacant 800 sq ft. To create an installation under the canvas powerful theme ‘Kal Kal’.
Hunt? All the products they used by them were only to be provided by the participating brands (luxury materials and product brands such as River, Colosium, Swami Mermo, Sunroof, Hybec and Embellish). This is the one that designs the position as a beacon of transformation: as a part of a living and breathing ecosystem to allow visitors to see the products seen in stalls (usually in sterile environment of its kind).
Arts and decorations were displayed by brands with decorative pieces (such as Lotus Arts Day Vyers) with circumference.
Design feetSuccessful in cutting through noise, offering an convergence of architecture, interior design, visual art and content innovation. The concept and executed by ground-breaking events and performing and design partner Birla OPS paints offered a immersion dialogue between the idea, form and concept, focusing on the essence of-presented by Tabu and Elite Building Material (EBM).
19-participating studios are the most bright names in Indian design, including Gauri Adppa, Arun Sharma, Sumit Dhawan, Maha K and Vijay Kumar, Gayatri and Namith Architects, Hiren Patel, Quirk Studio, Rohit Bhoit House of Design and Sona Ready.

Think beyond ‘specific’
When approaching the core, each designer had one kind of type. For example, Pooja Bihani Knitted air A future passenger for a future passenger rebuilt a hotel suit in West Bengal, which wants and simply does not use. “This was the first time I worked with so many clothes, grounding space in traditional Kanthas, Splendor And Jambanis Earlier, “she explains in detail about the colorful, colorful space with vortex of Indigo and Reds.”
Nishita Kamdar of her name studio worked especially with nature-inspired materials and motifs for her installation, Walking in the gardenShe explains, “I wanted to make this meditative Zen space that feels like a break for visitors and activates all their senses.”
Ameet Mirpuri’s design studio looked back to look forward, turtle shell trinkets and box-making (made in their father’s factory more than 50 years ago), and to shed light on a light on clothes and furnishings using the scanned texture of these shells. Red architects were located for a bold soul, one that forced people to think beyond the typical boundaries. In their booth, living, food, bath and bars all lie next to each other, not anywhere by statements like a ladder.
Strategically deployed intervention such as mirrors carved a lot of interactive poses in the design pov.
The Amit Survekshan of the Talati and Partners discovered the power of various seats, making a comfortable home theater with curated seating pockets for all ages. Khushboo and Kunal Khandelwal (Studio Design Inc.) Shifting Perspectives Users were filled with bold huge (think black, white, white and vibrant reds) and eccentric silhouette in an art-inspired, emergent finger, while Sanjeet Sing’s bold forms of Sinag and the signature style of Evocative Hughes were made in their booths. Each thoughtful place worked on a specific story, making visitors not only a chance to see products used in different contexts, but some of the best designs in India could also get a glimpse in the creative talents of the brain. In addition, multimedia art installation, art presentation and live panel discussions added another layer of nuances.
In the traditional landscape of design exhibitions, the only focus and moneymaker performs products. But designing the design pov surprising, giving new emphasis to the design process.
This focused on cooperation, experimentation and fiction, encouraged designers and attendees to look beyond beauty surface and dive into stories and minds shaping our design.
The success of an initiative such as design pov, from its first repetition, is a will for the need for the development of design events in India.
