About Siddharth Bathla

I am an architect and an industrial designer from education. A firm believer of design as a process, problem solving and engaging with the end user. These being the common threads irrespective of the design field has lead me to co found - design factory india, a multi disciplinary design studio. In focus I am trained in strategic design management, user experience design processes, communication design, architectural and space design, industrial design, service and system design. I do a lot of multidisciplinary design projects ranging from deigning museum spaces, identity and branding,books, websites and buildings. Some of the latest projects are Museum of socialism at Lucknow, City Branding of Agra, System design for farmer markets, a book attempting to liberalize Islam in India. Because of my interest in design education, I have been a core team member of the design village ( TDV )- an industry centric design school. I have been engaged in developing the school vision, course curriculum with Technical university of Delft, developing the business plan, teaching design processes and methodologies and conducting product development workshops. I am also on the advisory panel to delhi university for design education, been the reviewer for INDEED ( Dutch design education proposal for India ) and the jury member for Industrial design programme - school of planning and architecture, New Delhi. I wish to take my design journey facing design challenges, experimenting with multidisciplinary design forms and keeping a strong connection with design education for learning, introspection and reflection.
