This year, the three-day showcase is centred on the theme of Sense and Sensibility. Co-founder Asif Sataar explains, &ldquo;With this theme, we are consciously shifting the lens toward how a space is experienced. Texture, sound, atmosphere and emotion are not secondary layers, they are fundamental to how people connect with a space.&rdquo;
&ldquo;Each edition strengthens that ambition through sharper curation, stronger collaborations and immersive environments that allow people to connect meaningfully with design,&rdquo; concludes fellow founder, Gagan Bhatia.
FROM May 15 to 17; 11 am onwards AT Jio World Convention Centre, BKC.&nbsp; LOG ON TO in.bookmyshow.com ENTRY Rs 1799 onwards
