India Contemporary Design - Fashion, Graphics, Interiors by Divia Patel

This book is the first ever study of the work of trained designers in the disciplines of fashion, graphics, and interiors in India. It explores the ideas and influences that inform their creativity and conveys how their work is shaping the cosmopolitan environments of Indias metropolitan cities. An over-arching theme is the way in which they define their work and negotiate identity and Indian-ness in a contemporary global context. Based on studio visits and interviews with designers, this study offers well-researched essays illustratedwith a wide range of images.
