INSIDE VIEW: EPISODE 2 – DESIGN IS IN THE DETAILS

A fashion designer and two architects trace how detail shapes design and identity

- 

In episode two of Schueco India's Inside View series, Design is in the Details, in collaboration with Architecture + Design and Lifestyle Asia India, fashion designer Pranav Kirti Misra teams up with architects Sanchit Arora and Shantanu Garg to dive into the art of detailing in both fashion and architecture. Pranav shares insights into how the smallest details—whether it’s the intricacy of embroidery or the structure of a garment— can turn a design, while the architects discuss how every element, no matter how minute, plays a pivotal role in shaping a space.

Together, they explore how detailing infuses both function and flair into interiors. Topics like custom wardrobes, boutique displays and showrooms built to withstand the test of time are discussed, as the trio examines the balance between durability and style. The conversation takes an interesting turn as they touch upon a critical yet often overlooked challenge in design—the impact of humidity on materials and fabrics. With practical advice on protecting textiles, paints and other sensitive elements from climate-induced wear, they offer solutions from both fashion and architectural viewpoints.

THE POWER OF DETAIL

The conversation begins with the significance of detail in design. According to Shantanu, detail is not just about the visible elements; it’s about the deeper connection that forms between design and its cultural roots. For him, design is an expression of identity and culture, especially when it comes to integrating Indian heritage into modern forms.
