Adaptive Reuse

These works seek to reimagine artefacts beyond their original purpose to extend their lifespan while preserving the cultural memory and craftsmanship. Rooted in principles of sustainability, they encourage responsible design, allowing heritage objects to remain relevant in changing contexts by creating new meanings while maintaining a tangible connection to their rich material culture. Rather than replicating the past, these interventions offer new narratives that connect historical craftsmanship with present-day needs and future possibilities.

Graphic Design

These works explore the translation of traditional Kashmiri visual aesthetics into contemporary graphic communication. Drawing inspiration from vernacular motifs, ornamentation, and craft traditions, they reinterpret traditional visual vocabularies for contemporary digital media. By adapting the inherited design vocabularies to new contexts, these works seek to create visual narratives that preserve cultural memory while engaging with present day needs and modes of communication.
