Product Design with Crafts
Building contemporary products using the strength of Indian craft traditions.
India’s craft traditions hold immense design knowledge — techniques, materials, and processes refined over generations. Yet much of this knowledge remains underutilized in modern product development.
The Craft-Based Product Development programme at Designary is designed to bridge this gap.
This programme teaches participants how to use traditional craft techniques as the foundation for designing contemporary products and collections. Instead of treating crafts as decorative elements, participants learn how to understand their systems and transform them into meaningful, market-ready products.
The programme moves through the full cycle of understanding craft, designing with it, and developing a product collection with artisans.
