Kerala
India’s first “Design Yatra” has started in Kozhikode, Kerala on October 29 to spread awareness and take designs to the masses. The yatra will travel to 29 cities across the country by February 2017, covering 15,000 kms in three cars. It is launched by the Institute of Indian Interior Designers (IIID). The purpose of the yatra is to inspire people to design houses, schools, hospitals and public places in such a way that they present local culture, consider convenience of people and save the environment.
