DESIGNING FOOD EXPERIENCES
003
Project Guide: Prof. Ravi Mokashi Punekar
Eating is an act so common that it has become mundane and blissfully ignorant. We have
lost the ability to truly question what we eat, and that is troubling because that is what
make our physical selves. Can we combat obesity and diabetes through prevention and not
cure, just by being conscious of what we put through our body?
Taste is a potent yet ignored sense, but having said that eating is also among the few
+91 9678 554 226 experiences that communicates through all 5 senses. My project is about studying food

ILLUSTRATION FOR CHILDREN
The story: Unnikatha by Mukundan. In a fst paced world of instant gratifications and
digital, my attempt was to make the story visually tangible, earthy, and natural.
Thus I decided on the medium of collage, using different textures and patterns and
bright colours.
IDENTITY FOR SELF
In a class assignment, we were asked to design professional identities for ourselves.
As I sat to ponder over how to best describe who I am, what I stand for, I asked myself
what best depicts who we are? I realised it is perhaps our expressions. It’s what we
say, how we say it, our manners. Moreover, it is what we write in the back of our
notebooks and diaries, what we scribble, the seemingly unimportant inconsequential
everyday doodles. Hence I took my class notebook and scanned all the doodles and
sketches and derived a visual identity out of them.

Designing of Interactive product/environment for enhancing the experience of storytelling
through digital media. The Project was given the theme as “Design for Elderly”
Motivation for the Project:
The relation between the grandparent and grandchild is considered to be the closest in the
family. The communication gap tends to be minimum. The grandparent tends to share
experiences and stories with the grandchild. The need of some kind of activity to keep
elderly occupied and busy, also they have a tendency to narrate their experiences and
stories. So, Storytelling as a medium was identified as the potential design space.
