It’s about time we kick-start a revolution in Design from India
Together, we can make the world more intelligent, more creative, more beautiful, more sensitive, more conscious, more playful, and definitely more delightful
This Design Revolution aims to transform India into the hub of Design in the world. Through playfulness, and #PureDoing
Launched in September 2014, the Design Revolution from India, or DesignRev for short has since clocked over:
-
- 43 Design Workshops in over 8 locations in India

DesignRev has also:

And lots more. We’ve barely started

TEDx: Design with Emptiness | Niyam Bhushan
The world is not frugal by Design. We may have all the abundance, colours, flowers, and joys of the world. Beyond all these forms lies emptiness. For Nature does not abhor the vacuum. According to Design the vacuum is the womb of Nature. So what is the purpose of Design long after all the forms are forgotten? What defines the inner discipline of the Designer? In this TEDx talk delivered in Hyderabad, Niyam offers deep insights that change the narrative of minimalism design as practised in the West, and reveals its true meanings and origins from the ancient design principles of India and the Orient.
