What is MEDS Travel?
MEDS “Meetings of Design Students” Travel is a new educational travel initiative which started in 2018 and derived from the summer workshops but based on a travel concept.
The idea and goal for the travel is to educate and show international design students and creative minds the architectural, cultural and historical aspects of a country.
It’s an enjoyable way to interact with people outside our familiar cultural and educational or professional spheres and capture and learn about important landmarks.
Objective and Outcome
Provided participants the opportunity to travel around India, get inspired and have a rich exchange of cultures.
Outcome of the travel: document the structure and monuments either digital or hand drafted; compilation of it as a travel book for further references; visit and see the culture for inspiration purposes and develop design skills; have a connection with the country
