my focus as a designer 

I believe Design is all about simplifying lives. As a Textile Designer my focus has always been to make life simpler, enjoyable, meaningful and sustainable for everyone who is involved in the process from creation to final utilization.

my motivation to take part in the International Design School 2013

The theme of the workshop is extremely exciting and futuristic.  I look forward to cross-cultural interactions and finding new ways in taking forward the traditional skills and wisdom while implementing it in the technologically advanced contemporary world.
