The Indian Design Platform returns to London Design Festival after its 2015 debut – this time exploring the theme of Transformation.

About

The exhibition takes inspiration from the culture of recycling and reuse that exists to the extreme in India, exploring the ways in which artists and designers have reinterpreted humble, discarded materials as design objects. A selection of work inspired by salvaged materials and traditional craftsmanship will reveal how contemporary designers are reshaping the culture of recycling in India – a country where previously little was thrown away, but where rapid growth and urbanisation is now creating vast amounts of waste.
