THE MINDS BEHIND THE IDEA 9
The 17d design house in Jubilee Hills is where it all sstarts. Right from brainstorming , deliverance to UNO.
They say that behind every successful man there is a woman. Here, the woman sits right beside him. 17dnorth was incepted by a husband-wife duo from NID (National Institute of Design). While Sandeep is a maverick in creating user centric design and has a passion for creating brand positioning for start-ups, Sayalee is into industrial design and loves creating unique furniture. When the couple is not experimenting with designs, they are seen experimenting with cuisines with the team after work

I worked on a lot of t shiirt designs, ideas and illustrations on paper before we actually put it down digitally.Since this is a new brand , a marketing strategy was also developed as to how to make it more accessible and visible to the youth, which is the target market here.
SUPERHEROES A superhero tee always works no matter what. Thus the idea of developing this graphic was to develop not only a smart and funny superhero t shirt but also a smart and pun-ny superhero t shirt.

17d was not just an eight week long mandatory internship that I somehow pushed through it was an experience.It is funny when how I stepped out in the world for the first time I was stung by confidence in boosts and pieces, working for a week in th e design studio setup - failing - losing hope and false pride and then coming back to reality and building your faith all over again in your work.Everyday at 17d came with a lot of fun snd it is beautiful how I’ve learnt to work while being happy.I’ve learned all that I’ve ever wanted to at 17d, being a core writer at heart and never really really attached to the graphic part, it was always my writing that overshadowed my work, there waks always concept ruling my design with most of it majorlyy failing on the deign aspect,8k weeks down at 17d, I’m older and oh yes , I can now confidently work on the end product I decide to have and successfully get it by the time I finish working on it; Another important thing , probably what I can call the most important here is how I’ve learned to work in deadlines - which I assume is not only good for an office atmosphere but also in life. Character illustrations and logo design are a .cup of tea I can take with ease now. The eight weeks spent at 17d, there was so much I could absorb,there’s so much I did - the experience has been amazing in every true word of what I say here.
More power and love to 17d!
