The inception of Indus Design School (IDS) came about to address the growing need for a well-structured and credible formal education in design. IDS is located in Ahmedabad, one of India's most culturally and historically vibrant cities. For centuries, the city has been a gateway to grandeur, heritage & style. The delicate interlacing of the city's art legacy and contemporary lifestyle made it a perfect host for a revered design school- IDS.
The curriculum of holistic knowledge development is structured to provide in-depth, progressive learning in design creation & effectively navigate learners through the core of the design process that varies between design disciplines. As the design is a highly skill-driven stream, IDS executes the 'learning-by-doing' approach, starting from foundation years. Indus Design School houses the best equipment and technology of professional standards, made available to students and instructors to provide the best learning experience.
