A workplace often becomes a monotonous space without any meaningful engagement offered to its employees. “The need for a millennial workspace is an everyday brief, but the same is often addressed through googled imagery and borrowed designs that are dressed up in various avatars.

Sustaining Crafts Reflecting On The Role Of Collaborative And Studio-Based Practice
Craft involves a rigorous process to convert a material into a product that has utility as well as an aesthetic quality associated with it. These processes have been developed over time and generations. However, traditional craft, now and again, appears to be divorced from innovative practice and the generation of ideas and, thus, inhibits the cognitive and the conceptual development. Also, at times, some crafts communities are confined to the boundaries of their region and thus, remain unexposed to the globalised world. This offers a great threat to craftspeople and pushes these deep-rooted traditional handmade products out, replacing them with mass-produced, factory-made, mechanized goods. However, collaborative and studio-based practice models can help bring awareness amongst craftspeople about trending designs and new techniques for meeting the demand of the variety-seeking consumers.
