Tejas Dhadphale
This project explores design history as a critical lens for shaping the creative mind of today and tomorrow. Rather than serving as nostalgic reflection, historical awareness is framed as an essential tool for contemporary innovation and critical thinking. The curriculum spans major movements from the Arts and Crafts period to Postmodernism and Contemporary design, spotlighting figures such as William Morris, Walter Dorwin Teague, Ray and Charles Eames, Raymond Loewy, Marcel Breuer, Dieter Rams, Ettore Sottsass, and Yves Béhar. Through this foundation, students learn to draw upon legacy to inform meaningful design futures.
