Homegrown Community Projects

In early 2025, Young Designers India brought together 15 designers to collaborate across teams of varying sizes. Using a chess set and a deck of cards as shared mediums, the project explored how modern India can be expressed through form, symbolism, and play. Supported by Teague and Figma, the initiative was structured as a typical studio style design project.

Over the course of 2025, YDI generated over 1.2 million impressions for these projects.
