2016, Jaipur India

Sep 29 - Oct 01

Why Am I here? The theme for Kyoorius Designyatra 2016, "Why am I here?" comes from questions of relevance, context, inspiration and impact. Am I here to just design some books, logos and posts? Or to write kick-ass scripts, shoot cool films or win pencils and lions? Maybe to have fun being creative while chasing passions, dreaming dreams and making ends meet? Is there something more to this? Why am I here? What is the point? The 11th edition of Designyatra also reflects on why we are here, along with being one of the largest design conferences around the world.
