I am a master’s student in Ceramic and Glass Design at the National Institute of Design. My design philosophy is rooted in sustainability and environmental consciousness. With a background in architecture, I’ve come to believe that in today’s world, the materials we choose are just as important as the function they serve. Once function and purpose are fulfilled, what remains is the material its impact, its afterlife. Design thinking, therefore, should not end at the product but extend to what happens afterward.
