NID has rendered more than five decades of service and contributed to India’s development. The institute is also recognised as a scientific and industrial research organisation by the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India. From being a single campus institute at the beginning of the Tenth Five Year Plan, NID has grown into a multicampus institute with a national and international profile at the end of the tenth plan period. From an institute mainly providing undergraduate diploma programmes, NID has become one of the best design institutes in the world with a graduate level Diploma Programme spreading in eight design disciplines and seventeen sector-specific post-graduate programmes in diverse design domains, state of the art infrastructural facilities such as the Knowledge Management Centre, Information Technology (IT) Centre, Design Vision 2 Annual Report 2010-11 Centre. These have helped NID establish its leadership and pre-eminence among various design institutions. NID continues to be an aspirational ‘Institutional Global Brand’ for the youth. This is manifested in the increasing demand to secure admission at NID. There has been a positive increase in the intake of students, from about 83 in 2000 to 322 in the academic year 2010-11. Also, the number of students convocating from the institute each year has undergone a change; it has increased from 35 in 2000 to 222 in 2009 and 213 in 2010. NID has been playing a significant role in promoting design through various first time initiatives which include CII-NID Design Summit since 2001, BusinessworldNID Design Excellence Award since 2000, NID-IPTO Showcase since 2002 and Design Idea Fair since 2006, to move towards a ‘Design-enabled India’. The institute’s effort to become an effective medium for design promotion, continues to draw strength from partnerships with other global organizations such as ICSID, ICOGRADA, IPI and IDA and several national organizations. NID’s efforts towards making a National Design Policy finally materialised in February 2007 when the Government of India announced the first National Design Policy (NDP), a first among developing countries. In pursuance of the NDP, the Government of India has initiated steps to set up Design Education Campuses in Madhya Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh and Assam on the lines of NID. As envisaged in the NDP, the Government of India also set up the India Design Council (IDC) on March 2, 2009 with Director, NID as its Member Secretary. The IDC met thrice during the year 2010-11 to chalk out various design promotional programmes. NID has links and collaborations with a number of national and international institutions. This has helped to foster a culture of scientific enquiry through collaborative partnerships. For the faculty and students, this has become a platform for exchanging knowledge and ideas. NID is a unique institution with design excellence, intellectual wealth, and time-tested educational culture that is instrumental in addressing social problems and concerns. Today, the institute’s graduates are active in all sectors of the economy, and many have distinguished themselves in diverse fields such as textiles, product design, craft design and promotion, advertising, film making, multimedia, automobile design, developmental communication as well as design education. The institute believes that good design is good business and that it contributes to economic prosperity and better quality of life. NID’s Evolving Mandate The mandate for NID is to offer world-class design education and to promote design awareness and application towards improving the quality of life by or through the fulfillment of the following: Worldclass design education to create design professionals of excellence to help meet India’s diverse design needs and to create global leaders in Design Education and Research by recognising the changes in economic and business environment in a global context.

National Institute of Design 23 Ongoing Research Activities 1. Jamsetji Tata Trust Chair for Universal Design at NID Abir Mullick, an NID alumnus from US, joined NID as Fulbright Scholar under the Chair from September 2010. The duration of the Fellowship will be about 8–9 months. The focus of his research will be designing a new universal bathroom for Indian use - bathroom used by independent users (able bodied people), dependent users (older people, people with disabilities and children) and care givers (parents and family helpers) to learn about safety, usability, cultural difference and environmental barriers. A major initiative undertaken under this design research chair was to support a project on Universal Design of Public Toilets in Urban areas for Poorer Communities proposed by Abir Mullick, a FulbrightNehru scholar-in-residence at NID. Abstract: Public Toilets are an essential environment for maintaining health and hygiene that challenges safety, independence and privacy. There has been unacceptably a very weak global response to address water and sanitation in developing countries like India. Slums are increasing in number and sizes in urban cities, with poor amenities of sanitation and health, thereby affecting the overall health and hygiene of urban cities in India. Still many parts of the cities, towns and villages are deprived of public toilet facilities. Its usage can be challenging for most people especially those who are unable to access toilets particularly, disabled. No adequate research has been undertaken to 24 Annual Report 2010-11 provide ideal standards for toilet provision in creating accessible environments for everyone. Objectives: The project proposed for Universal Design of Public toilets in Urban areas for poorer communities therefore tends to identify new methods of design research will be employed to learn about needs and preference of the people. Design guidelines will be a result of the research. New bathroom fixture designs will be developed based on the design guidelines. Universal bathroom implies that it will be for everyone. Particular attention will be devoted to the public bathroom facilities and their use by a diverse population living in poorer communities. Since people live in families, the bathroom design will consider the needs of all users including the elderly and those with disabilities. Bathroom use by independent users, dependent users and caregivers will be studied to learn about safety, usability, cultural differences and environmental barriers. The new bathroom will be non user-specific and be usable by all users. Ashok Kumar and Pushplata Swarnakar, postgraduate students of Ceramic & Glass Design are pursuing their diploma project “Universal Design of Public Toilets in Urban Areas for Poorer Communities”, under the mentorship of Abir Mullick. Ravi Shankar, a faculty from the R&D campus, Bengaluru has been working on the development of framework and curriculum for Post Graduate Programme in Universal Design. This is the first of its kind initiative in the country and he is already anchoring a focus group involving select NID faculty members and a few international experts. Planning is being done for conducting national level workshops and series of roundtable discussion on Universal Design. 2. Ravi J Matthai Design Research Chair for Design Innovation for Enriching School Education, Craft Sectors and Design Research I. S. Mathur has been selected and appointed as the second incumbent of the Chair. The Chair commenced its activities from January 2011. Objectives: The objective of the research programme is to create Teacher’s Training Programmes in design institutes, where the individual trainees can give services in various capacities such as: Working as faculty in undergraduate or postgraduate programmes. Working as trainers in design clinics and training newly selected designers in industrial & corporate sector. Training the craftspersons to preserve traditional values & sensibilities. Teaching utility & appreciation of design at secondary school level. The objective of this research can be expanded based on the discussions one would have with various design institutions in India as ultimately the training for trainees should fulfill the need of all design institutions in the country. To fulfill the above objectives, it has been planned to have series of interviews with design teachers, design professionals, and other educators of repute. Work for collecting data and study of various curriculums is under process. Study of syllabi of all disciplines of NID and over 25 interviews have already been conducted since the commencement of the activities under this chair. The future plan is to collect various syllabi from established design institutions such as MIT, Pune; Srishti School of Arts, Bengaluru; D J Academy of Design, Coimbatore, and various IITs across the country to study what is being taught to the students at various levels so the future design teachers must understand the requirements of the students during their own training programmes.

Conservation of Rare Books and Documents In an effort to save the old documents and rare books from further deterioration, the KMC had requested the Indian Conservation Institute, Lucknow to help NID in the restoration process. Experts from ICI had visited NID, evaluated the conditions of these resources and gave a detailed report for the restoration work which is under study. Once this proposal is accepted and restoration work commences, the students and staff would benefit much as they could access these valuable resources, which are presently under restricted access due to its fragile state. Enhancement of Services In an effort to enhance the overall functioning of the KMC and to offer seamless services at its three campuses, several new steps have been suggested by the KMC Advisory Committee. These include procurement of the state of the art Library Management Software which has a completely integrated system with independent modules such as Online Public Access Catalogue (OPAC), Acquisition & Finance Management, Cataloguing and Authority Control, Circulation, Serial Control, Web- Gateway, Hi-Resolution Image Navigator, SDI, Reports, etc. which will greatly help to improve the services both at administrative as well the user level. Installation of RFID enabled security-cum-resource management system is also to be implemented as a pilot project at the Post Graduate Campus, at Gandhinagar. Once the system is well established at the said campus, it is envisaged to be implemented at both the other campuses as well. The objective of integrating efficient IT tools with the KMC is to make its resources widely available from multiple locations and offer an enriching experience of gaining knowledge value from its diverse resources collected over a period of 5 decades. Design Classics Collection The KMC has in its collection a large number of well designed products of American / European designers which were gifted to NID in the early 60’s, by the Museum of Modern Art, New York, under the Ford Foundation grants. At present, this collection is in need of urgent restoration as most of the products are in deteriorating condition due to age and climatical conditions. In this connection NID is in touch with the Indian Conservation Institute, Lucknow for the restoration task. Once the restoration work is completed, the KMC intends to preserve this valuable collection as a permanent exhibition within the campus with proper climate controlled atmosphere and regular maintenance. A major part of this collection is already on exhibit at the Panorama display area on the ground floor of the Institute, as part of the NID’s golden jubilee celebrations.

A delegation of the India Design Council visited Japan from August 23–September 1, 2010 to interact with individuals who were involved in processing the G-Mark. Their experiences and learnings from this visit have been instrumental in designing the framework of the I-Mark award. A five member team lead by Tomoko Ina visited India during January 2011 to plan the exhibition site for G-Mark awarded items in Delhi from March 4–6, 2011. The team visited 4 sites (i) India Habitat Centre, (ii) IGNCA, (iii) ITPO and (iv) FICCI auditorium. However, for the scheduled dates, only the FICCI auditorium was available and hence the team has finalized the FICCI space for the exhibition. The team subsequently visited NID Ahmedabad and discussed with the Member-Secretary, India Design Council. 40 Annual Report 2010-11 Japanese Good Design Exhibition During March 4–6, 2010 Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) organised an exhibition titled Japanese Good Design Exhibition in India.

MSME-Design Clinic Scheme Project funded by the Ministry of Small and Micro Industries, Government of India The DC, MSME has appointed NID as the single coordinating body/nodal agency for implementation of the Design Clinic Scheme developed by us for increasing the manufacturing competitiveness of micro, small and medium enterprises across the country. The scheme was launched in February 2010 by the DC, MSME. Since then, NID has set up zone-wise regional Centres at Delhi, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, and Kolkata and an Extension Centre for North East at Guwahati. The institute has entered into an MoU with Industry and Trade organisations such as CII, FICCI, HCCI, MCED, IIE, for handholding implementation of the scheme across the country. The scheme envisages organizing 200 seminars, 200 design clinic workshops (25%financial contribution from MSMEs), 100 student projects (25% financial contribution from MSMEs) and 300 design projects (40% financial contribution from MSMEs). Initially there were some difficulties in reaching out to MSME clusters and getting the requisite financial contribution from them. The institute has since then made handholding arrangements with industry and trade associations such as CII, FICCI, MCED, IIE, HCCI etc. and has achieved the target of 100 seminars as of March 2011. With 77 more seminars being scheduled, NID would be completing the target of 200 seminars before the end of financial year 2011–12. All our efforts are being made to get more design clinics organized and design projects undertaken by MSMEs in spite of the fact that most of the MSMEs are very reluctant to contribute 25% for design clinic workshops and 40% for the design project. Institutions such as Indian Institute of Entrepreneurship, Guwahati have come forward to help the MSMEs by contributing 25% of the cost for organizing Design Clinic Workshops.

The Universal Design Initiative: The UD Initiative initiated by V Ravishankar last year has made significant progress in articulating the meaning of Universal Design as relevant to our country and how to proceed further. These efforts have resulted in the preparation of the first draft for ‘Indo German 2 Year PG Programme in Universal Design Competence’ proposed to be offered jointly by NID and University of Applied Sciences & Arts, Germany from June 2012. The details are given below: 68 Annual Report 2010-11 Synopsis Preamble Since inception, NID’s intent has been to work and train designers in a space relevant to the social needs of India and its people. With 50 years of maturity & consolidation, it has been realized that Universal Design needs to be the practice of the future. With the IT industry growth, energetic manufacturing sector and India centric global view becoming evident, the business and design stakeholders in industry and the Government seem inclined and feel the importance of contextual localized design of products and services usable by diverse population. This, we believe, can only be addressed and driven by a Universal Design thinking and approach. Universal Design is also a national agenda being taken up by Ministry of Social Justice which plans to set up National Institute of Universal Design which can be a primer to the PG programme initiative. NID, after instituting the Tata Universal Design Chair, found a keen and ideal partner in University of Applied Sciences & Arts, Germany which has initiated Universal Design in the context of the aged population in Germany, to consolidate and build awareness in this subject area and more importantly start a joint PG Programme in Universal Design. Both the partners envision this programme to create design professionals who will bridge the gap between responsible and business viable design for all. Definition Universal Design is a philosophy and a way of democratic design thinking, a way of designing for everyone. It takes into account human, gender, social, economic and cultural diversity. It is a responsible activity for a sustainable future. PG Programme Context a) India exists in the past, present, and future simultaneously and constantly. Today it is ‘fitting to the existing’ habit of the people who are adaptive, accommodating, forgiving, inclusive, uncomplaining consumers, unfamiliar with systemic design. b) Looking at the future, the extremes in population density, literacy, migration, lifespan health, half the population that is going to live in urban, youth who intuitively imbibe technology, educated and adaptive aged and the omnipresent common man. c) Products, spaces and services that are, comprehendible (communication and use), adaptive, accessible, affordable, safe, re-usable, satisfy diverse design requirements that are contextual to Indian society. These we believe could define Universal Design in India and form the context for the PG Programme. PG Programme Objectives To develop professional human resource in Universal Design Thinking and Practices addressing ‘Diversity’ in the India and European Context. To create professionals with competence in system level design development for public spaces, work spaces, products and services for diverse users with a universal design approach in the Indian and European context. To create Universal Design Practitioners (designers), Thought Leaders (design teachers) and Strategists (design requirement builders) Beneficiaries Indian and Transnational Business and Government enterprises and NGOs engaged in primary level need based products and services. Academic institutions involved in design education. Prospective Students and Prerequisites National Institute of Design, India: Graduates in Design (Industrial, Visual Communication and Interior Design), Architecture and Ergonomics, with minimum 2 years industry experience in areas of products, services or infrastructure development, applied research & practice Also sponsored candidates from industry, Govt. and NGOs University of Applied Sciences, Germany: Graduates in Design (Industrial, Communication and Interior Design), Engineering, Technology, Architecture, Sociology, Psychology, Occupational Therapy and Ergonomics with minimum 2 years industry experience in areas of products, services or infrastructure development, applied research & practice Programme Content The programme is envisioned to be an advanced level postgraduate study in Universal Design Thinking and Approach for problem solving in domains of primary concern with breadth and depth in: Design History Design and Systems Theory and Methodology Human Factors – (Anthropometric, Biomechanical, Perception and Cognitive) Social Cultural Diversities and Intercultural Communication Ethnography and Research Methodologies Technologies and Materials Lifespan Health and Disabilities V Ravishankar will visit Germany and hold discussions and finalise the contents and other modalities for offering the course during the coming year.
