The exhibition component involves showcasing the work of emerging designers practicing in India, to facilitate the reading of prevailing trends across various design-based creative industries. Never easy to comprehend, the design story of a culture at any given moment, is perhaps best understood by looking at young design practices. Therefore, Annual Design X Design 20under35 Exhibition, by sharing the philosophies, working methods, and future aspirations of the twenty shortlisted designers under the age of thirty-five, aims to raise levels of appreciation, foster cross-connections, and inform the journeys ahead. Design X Design in partnership with Alliance Française de Delhi (venue/ event partner) and Audacity (domain partner) presents the exhibition as a flagship event every winter.
Design in its many manifestations forms an integral part of every culture. Civilizations evolve and attain their full potential because of it. Design X Design, an interdisciplinary initiative, now in its second decade and a new avatar, involves exploration of the design phenomenon as a whole from the broadest perspective. Employing multiple modes and methods of engagement to locate the significance of Design in the larger socio-cultural context, Design X Design in partnership with Alliance Française de Delhi and other Domain Partners is also geared towards raising levels of appreciation within each discipline and nurturing connections across various design domains. Local and global in outlook it is directed at the initiated and the uninitiated alike.
