Architecture + Design - September 2024

In this issue

Shantanu Garg has a distinct style—it’s neither ethnic nor modern; neither purely contemporary or classical; it’s unique. It derives heavily from the rich history of luxury in India; and yet has an unmistakably modern twist. His journey through design is all about elevating the ‘Made in India’ story to the ‘Designed in India’ narrative. In our cover feature, we take you to his fantastical world of design that is truly Indian. We take you to the world of The Modern Maharaja.

As we dwell on the definition of Modern Indian design sensibility, in our special segment—Young Icons, we shine the spotlight on ten brilliant young design thinkers who are invigorating the design landscape with their fresh perspectives. Young Icons is more than just a segment; it’s our commitment to fostering the next generation of visionaries.

When peers, competitors and mentors become collaborators, you witness the synergy of different perspectives working towards creating something truly unique. In our special feature on collaborations, we explore how such creative synergies are reshaping the design ecosystem, not just in India, but globally!
