Every once in a while, there comes along a change. And when HP Inc. reached out to us to be a part of this change, IndieFolio Network jumped right in! On the 24th and 25th of July, at One Style Mile in New Delhi, HP Inc.’s high-performance Z Series for creative professionals was launched and IndieFolio Network came on board as the Community & Knowledge Partner for this spectacle. Read on for a sneak peak into this collaboration:
Day 1 was a frenzy of glamour and excitement with the launch of the series by ace filmmaker Zoya Akhtar at an exclusive event with creative enthusiasts, popular emerging artists, and creative luminaries.
A combination of the collective creative prowess in attendance and an incredible set-up made for an unforgettable evening.
Day 2 was a culmination of learning, inspiration, mentorship, and live art with young designers, creative students, and design enthusiasts in attendance. IndieFolio Network curated a cohesive line-up with some stellar artists that had something for everyone in this day-long extravaganza.
Kicking things off with a keynote by Baahar Dhawan Rohatgi titled: Terms and Conditions*
*Weaving the journey from a lawyer to an artist.
A packed house for the keynote by Aaquib Wani on Being a Design Rebel – Creating a Design Legacy by Pushing Boundaries.
Anant Ahuja (popularly known as Typethug) leading a hands-on workshop where attendees got to redesign their favourite beverage labels on the powerful on HP Z machines.
A huge draw for the young designers present was the opportunity to have their portfolio reviewed and received some invaluable advice from our mentors – Avirup Basu (Experience Designer at Adobe), Bhavesh Bhati (Commercial Photographer at Studio3Beez), Girik Jain (Senior Art Director at Cheil India), and Kavan Antani (CEO & Co-founder of IndieFolio Network).
Ending the day with a showstopper –
The Design Band live for the very first time! Would you believe that Saumya Shukla, Gargi Chandola, Sarah Kaushik, and Mohamad Azad created this collaborative artwork from scratch in one hour?
