6 stellar events you need to catch at India Design ID

Team ID

February 8, 2018

Each year at India Design ID, we attempt to curate the best in design. From global brands showcasing at ID Exhibit to design gurus sharing their visions at ID Symposium, it’s a week that inspires and brings together the fraternity with an aim to increase the business of design.

Architects, designers and brands collaborate on products and spaces at the fair, and while walking around the exhibit, it’s a joy to discover these partnerships. From new trends in kitchens, furniture and lighting to interactive, never-before-seen showcases – there’s so much to take in, that anyone making a home or with an interest in decor will have a lot to explore and know what’s available – all at one location.

Below are the top 6 things I’m looking forward to at ID this year:
