50 Years of the National Institute of Design: 1961–2011

Description

Through a few hundred pages, this publication has captured time; indeed, fifty years in the life of the National Institute of Design (NID) have been presented through the medium of text and images—all of which make this book a delight to read. This book describes the naissance of the National Institute of Design and its educational ethos, its design philosophy, and its design practices that have so remarkably evolved, making NID a name to reckon with today. The book is a humble attempt at acknowledging all those individuals who have contributed towards the flourishing of this institute. Reminiscences by students, faculty, alumni, and staff members of this institute bring in a nostalgic touch to the narrative. This commemorative book is a celebration of the pioneering efforts of the National Institute of Design in imparting design education while simultaneously initiating the Indian design journey.
