craft design studio The hands-on experimentation and exploration was facilitated in the campus workshops which imbibed a unique understanding of material and its diverse properties in the participants. People from different backgrounds worked together (master craftspeople, craft students, designers etc.) which initiated new discussions and fresh ideas. Through this process, learning happened at both tangible and intangible levels and all the participants were introduced to new larger avenues for innovation and development. While working with the actual material, there were many challenges, failures and trials and errors but the collective knowledge of the craftspeople and the material experts and enthusiasm of the team ensured the process goes on. The trial- error based method ensured that learning happens while working with the material by hand.
