The rain as a catalyst transforms nature and brings it to its breath-taking beauty. The drops blend with the surroundings, bringing refreshing changes and experiences. Design in similar ways is the catalyst for change which has the power to create new experiences that will bring enhanced meaning to life. It has thus forever been an integral though unseen part of any process. In the times today where potentials and opportunities are blooming, Design must become the leading light of the industry. Earlier guided by technology and production, the industry is now seeking guidance from design and innovation. Design is ubiquitous and is inclined towards improving life as it creates for the user. The future frontiers of experiential and industrial development will be governed by design ideals. The aim of organising a design show is to make the world aware of the limitless possibilities that design holds. 04 05 About Industrial Design Centre Established in 1969, the Industrial Design Centre (IDC) stands amidst flora of the IIT Bombay campus and is the epicentre of creative energy in it.
