The Furniture and Interior Design discipline at NID looks at living, working and interaction environments through the study of objects, structures and systems operating at the human scale. The programme addresses issues of sustainability and environmental concerns through in-depth studies of materials, processes and aesthetics.
The graduate programme emphasizes on development of strong material, technical, aesthetic and empirical skills as well as the conceptualization and design development skills. The discipline instils a strong hands-on approach along with a thorough understanding and application of user-centric studies, resource-material engagement, critical thinking and problem-solving capacities. The post-graduate programme places well-researched studio practice at its core by enabling an informed interdisciplinary negotiation between needs, constraints and applications. Students seek to combine factors like materials and their environmental impact and fabrication and production understanding to identify new design practices and opportunities to address changes and demographic shifts of the 21st century.

The identity of this book edited by the late I.S. Mathur is established by its leitmotif—training the teachers of design or educating the design educators. This book is divided into three major sections—‘Retrospection’, ‘Introspection’, and ‘Perception’. A mélange of thoughts, experiences, and anecdotes expressed by alumni, faculty both former and present, and artists—this book touches upon poignant issues which can influence the spread of design education across design schools/institutions in India.
