Experience the visual brilliance of our 8th Anniversary Issue as we explore the theme of 'Authenticity' through the lenses of Identity, Craft, and Community. This special edition celebrates the visionaries shaping the design of today and tomorrow, honouring the communal, cultural, and heritage bonds that connect us to the values of belonging and sustainability. Discover a showcase of exceptional design and the journeys of industry leaders. Meet the Harbingers of Change – Muaz Rahman Architects, Selves, Atelier Varun Goyal, Studio Klay, Begumpoivre, Studio Context Architects, Studio MG, The Prana Homes, and Roy Antony Architects – who are reimagining how we live, work, and create. Bold and purposeful, their work blends heritage with fresh perspectives on the future.  Our featured homes reflect the unique essence of their inhabitants, brought to life by design masters like Stirvi Architects, Studio Wodehouse, and RGB Architecture Studio. Guardians of traditional arts and crafts – Jesmina Zeliang, Lavina Baldota, and Aadyam Handwoven – have empowered local communities, ensuring their work thrives globally. We delve into generational practices with Sanjay and Sanchit Arora, ABM Architects, and Sunita and Kohelika Kohli, exploring how parents and children collaborate to honour the past while shaping the future of design. Through conversations with Rajiv Saini, Sameep Padora, Ambrish Arora, Khushnu Panthaki Hoff, Subodh Gupta, and Mancini, we uncover how creative identities form where tradition and innovation intersect. Unveiling the craft behind celebrated brands like Poltrona Frau, Minotti, Hastens, and Bram Woodcrafting Studio, we highlight creators shaping enduring legacies.
