DON'T JUST THROW COUPLE OF FANCY CHAIRS AND A TABLE AND BE DONE WITH IT. DESIGN YOUR SPACE FOR CONVERSATION THAT SPARKS BRAND THINKING.

 

 

 

THIS IS A BAD TIME TO BE BORING

Setting aside the quickening of time factor, (another expression for another day), the simple truth is, — your clients and your prospects does not feel encouraged to interact with you because, you do not inspire them. More often than not, you have been dishing out half-baked product updates at trade shows, using the same kiosks and booth designs that does not infuse them with any new thoughts, or, nudge them to participate in your presentation, because, you have messaged it with the SOLE FOCUS ON YOUR PRODUCT.

Art of Business: Seduction of Suggestion

Posted by sarmistha tarafder on Feb 20, 2017 12:47:47 PM

 

seduction IS THE ONLY ART THAT STOOD THE TEST OF TIME

LET's face IT — WE ALL LOVE TO BE SEDUCED

Some of us are implicit about it and others are a tad bit explicit about it. We all long for this sense of restlessness that drives us to do deeds that are socially not quite the norm and culturally not quite acceptable. Here is what the master seducer have to say about seduction.

Dynamic Bedfellows: High Design and Shrewd Business Acumen

Posted by sarmistha tarafder on May 16, 2011 2:37:00 PM

"ABUNDANCE, ASIA and AUTOMATION" has brought us to the doorstep of Conceptual Age. Prosperity, Technology and Globalization has presented us with the paramount challenge: How do we make our products and services shine?

The simple answer is Upscale Design for Common Commodities.

Ben Evans, director of London Design Festival said: "Design and creativity are one of the key competitive advantages, companies in developing economies can have. In the future it will probably the only one that they have left."

The same sentiment is shared by Robert Hayes, professor emiritus at Harvard Business School: "Fifteen years ago companies competed on price. Now, it's quality. Tomorrow it's design."
And now, it is morphing to design by data.

Trade Booth Design Trends: A Walk in the Bizarre

Posted by sarmistha tarafder on Dec 11, 2010 3:00:00 PM


The term bi•zarre |biˈzär| means odd, eccentric and strikingly out of the ordinary. The bizzare is the construct of our creative, nonconformist right brain. It is absolutely absurd, crazy, nonsensical, preposterous. It is unreal. It is wild. It is fanciful. It is the bizzare that creates movements and sets trends. An example is The Dada (movement or more of a non-movement) that began in Zurich in reponse to the insane killings of World War I. The movement was spearheaded by people walking in the bizzare.  Artists, poets, writers, intellectuals all concerted their efforts on anti-war politics by denouncing the prevailing standards in art through anti-art cultural works. Their purpose was to taunt what they considered to be the nonsensical nationalism, rationalism, materialism and any other -ism which they felt had contributed to a senseless war. An example of the outrageous Dada art is the painting of Mona Lisa with a mustache by Marcel Duchamp.

Posted by sarmistha tarafder on Dec 3, 2010 3:12:00 PM

 

In Latin, December means the tenth month. History dictates that in 700 BC, the Roman King Numa Pompilius moved the beginning of the year from March and added January and February.

From here on, the nameless dark stretch contributed to the 12 month Gregorian calendar as we now know it.
