Cheers!~
great news! can’t wait to see the first issue!
Hidesign is looking for a product / leather goods designer (mid level-senior position) 3+ years exp min. write to dipen@hidesign.com
do you feature photographers too?
Its a intiative in the field of design in India.
I was always surprised as there is no any magazine on industrial/product design in India.
and we have to opt for foreign magazine which are too expensive and featuring very less creative indian minds.
I suggest it shud features students work as well so that people will get to know the design education and works done by students.
FYI
We have organised our Design degree show 2010 at Master of Design (industrial Design) at IIT Delhi campus. It will be grateful if you feature the works of students in various categories ranging from consumer electronics to design for elderly.
Thanking you.

Dear Sir,
Seasons Greetings from SAGE!
I am writing to you on behalf of SAGE publications. We have recently published “Thinking Design” by S Balaram, Dean, D J Academy of Design, Coimbatore which looks at ‘design’ in its broadest sense, not limited to just fashion or fad. It shows how design originates in ‘human need’ which is not only physical but also psychological, socio-cultural, ecological and spiritual. The book calls for broad-based, socially integrated designs with a large global vision. The need of the day, it underlines, is the designing of strategies to offer creative solutions to a variety of subjects rather than providing multiplicity of objects. Exploring the course taken by design during the time of Gandhi and in the following era, the author advocates the need for service- or process-oriented designs in contrast to product-oriented designs. The book also showcases 13 design case studies that have done just that.
The book explores the intricate and multifarious relationship between the design activity and the product in the Indian context, exploring the history of traditional design and its evolution. On one hand it takes the reader through the cultural-roots of design, and, on the other, it also explores new technologies and their applications in design.
A remarkable feature of the book is the way its narrative is enlivened with case studies detailing design inventions, interspersed with tales of Mullah Nasiruddin that provide a tongue-in-cheek take on aspects of design. It is sprinkled with pictures that show the many faces and aspects of design.
This book will be an insightful reference for design professionals, academics and students in institutes conducting research on design and for those in the industrial/technical design departments of Engineering colleges.
We would like to feature this book in Pool Magazine. Will be grateful if you could feature this book through Pool Magazine
Look forward to hearing from you soon
Hello!
Am an avid reader of Pool and find that it fulfills a need in the design publishing scene in India. I’d be interested in contributing -

Could you let me know of formats/dates/contact people/editorial agenda/anything I need to know, so that one could get the conversation started. Thanks!
sincerely

Hi,
Perhaps pool could consider covering Salone del Mobile , Milano in their next issue. This was the first time I saw the fair and it completely blew my mind.
