Team L&M

The four-day India Design ID, the country’s premier decor and design event has started today at the NSIC Grounds in New Delhi. An initiative by Ogaan Media, the celebration is a melting pot of design, ideas, and trends, spotlighting the brightest minds in architecture and interior design on a global scale.

This year’s edition has an exceptional lineup of home-grown and international design experts, providing an exclusive platform for participating brands to explore emerging trends, share innovative ideas, and engage in conversations that pave the way for the design community.

A notable addition to India Design ID 2024 is the exhibition On Paper Of Paper, by Ankon Mitra in collaboration with Apparao Galleries. An architect and practising sculptor, Mitra curates the first-ever paper exhibition of its kind at India Design ID. It has over 70 artists from across the country, presenting their paper works as installations, hanging pieces, and wall art.

Says Aashti Bhartia, Vice-chairperson, Ogaan Media “We are very excited about the showcases and the speakers at ID 2024. There is so much that’s new this year — Ankon Mitra’s curation of paper artists from across the country in ‘On Paper Of Paper’ is a first of its kind paper art and decor exhibit. This is our second time presenting the Collectibles pavilion with great additions — Rooshad Shroff’s design studio, DeMuro Das and others return with exciting new pieces, Samuel Barclay’s Case Goods will be in the show for the first time, and Ashiesh Shah. Pritzker prize-winner Peter Zumthor’s conversation with Bijoy Jain at ID Symposium is something any architecture and design enthusiast wouldn’t want to miss.”

Preeti Singh, Brand Director, India Design ID says, “This year ID is even bigger and better. We are merely keeping up with the huge strides that the India design industry is making. An exciting part of the show is the ideas exchange forum which is going to see some brilliant and talented design voices from around the world.”
