Having designs on the world!

The degree show is near. Things are heating up now. Call here, invite there, posters put up? Banners done? Panels not done! Year book?? What is that? ....

This is the undercurrent and one can feel the pulse in the air. Something big is about to happen!

What is the hype all about? After all, its just a bunch of graduating students right?

There are students who get masters degrees all over the world! What's the big deal about these students?

Not really a big deal. Definitely not if you can ignore the fact that these are the cream 47 handpicked from the best of engineers, artists, architects and designers in the country and moulded to become designers who are going to mould the country's future in the next few years. Definitely not a big deal if you ignore the fact that these post graduates have been working and will continue to work not for providing 'designer' products in the market but for providing better standards of living even to the most deprived and under served sections of the society.

'Swarna', an apt name. This degree show takes place in one of the darkest times possible for the entire world. When there is a slowdown in every economy and there is an uncertain future ahead. 'Swarna' hopes to be that one thin golden lining against this dark cloud which brings with it the hope, enthusiasm and vision of fresh young minds who refuse to be brought down by the down turn. Who, with their hard work and creative thinking are busy working out ways to provide quality to a world where good living and comfort are things only dreamt of, unless you can pay a heavy price for them.

Be a part of this golden hope and share our enthusiasm!

Of course we have designs on the world! And what designs!
