Biography and Portfolio of a Footwear Designer

Biography
Born on 15th February 1989 in Suburbs of Bihar, I spent most of my childhood days in rural environment thus gaining value-based education from my surroundings, family and mentors .I completed my schooling at home and
did my higher secondary from a prominent city with science background .From the very childhood my instincts were inclined towards design. The design in the nature, the world of fashion designing lured me, fascinated me. Thus
I chose my graduate school to be a premier deign school of India- The National institute of Fashion Technology. Here I learnt the basic concepts and art of design. The three years spent here till now in accessory design
discipline has equipped me with understanding of design and honed my innovative talents. I learned here how to express oneself in form of abstract designs.

Learning and designing have been a mutual process over the period. My main focus is based on developing feature- specific leather goods and footwear. I emphasis on conceptual products with enhanced usability and new
features because innovative design clubbed along with new and special functions would contribute to the choice of people and cater to their different needs. Thus providing ample chances of success of the launched products. For
instance if u buy a new cell phone , laptop etc. from the market, new and varied features is the most sought entity and demand by the consumers. Therefore I want to develop products keeping consumers and their needs in mind.
Whether it's a bag or footwear or any accessory, if it provides more usability options then it's much better than a simpler product. Cost efficiency and durability is another fact that I concentrate on. In short I design not for elite
class but for masses. My motto is to thus design accessories with multiple usability, equipped with new and varied features with durability and cost efficiency which would create a new segment in the Fast- moving products
range of the market.

Theme board
The name of my theme is “Comfort”. Comfort is a
sense of physical or psychological ease, often
characterized as a lack of hardship. Comfort is a
particular concern in health care, as providing com-
fort to the sick and injured is one goal of healthcare
, and can facilitate recovery. Persons who are lac-
king in comfort are uncomfortable or experiencing
discomfort. The use of "comfort" as a verb gene
-rally implies that the subject is in a state of disco-
mfort or affliction. Where the term is used to des-
cribe the support given to someone who has exp-
erienced a tragedy, the word is synonymous with
consolation or solace. However, comfort is used
much more broadly, as one can provide physical

design process
omfort to someone who is not in a position to be
uncomfortable. For example, a person might sit in
a chair without discomfort, but still find the add-
ition of a pillow to the chair to increase their feeling

Airysol Shoe Series
The shoe has been designed with many features to make it comfortable and easy to use. The design is air- ventilated and has a spongy material in the sole along
with aerodynamic design. Stinking feet after use of shoes for long hours is a major problem with many people. It does not let them use their footwear if it's
avoidable and even if they do, it becomes a curse with the people living along stinking feet around. The shoe series have been designed with ventilation to enable
air passage and thus non smelling shoes. The shoes are designed in vibrant colors and also have been fabricated with spongy material in the soles for super
shock absorbency. The sole has been provided with rubber cushioning for reduced pressure n ankle while walking thus reducing the pain in select people who
feel pain in walking. This material is light weight reducing the overall shoe weight. The shoe series is colorful, basically with a dark color long with stripes
of bright colors tapered in the front. It's a perfect match for party wear and casual use.

Inspiration
The name of my Inspiration is “Chinese face change”. Bian Lian

is an ancient Chinese dramatic art that is part of the more general

Sichuan opera. Performers wear brightly colour costumes and

move to quick, dramatic music. They also wear vividly colour

masks, which they change within a fraction of a second. Face
changing is a stunt of performance in opera arts and is a romantic

technique to reveal the innermost feelings of characters in the play.

According to the legend, the ancients painted different patterns on

their faces to scare away fierce beasts for survival, thus the "face

changing art". Sichuan Opera uses "face changing technique" on

design process
the stage and transforms it into a special art with stunning skills.

Concept
The Inspiration in the series has been drawn from the Chinese

theme of face changing. In china there is a Tradition of having

game with painted faces and multiple masks. Each face and

mask conveys a different kind of expression in it. The expression

may consist of sadness, happiness, trying, startled, laughter etc.

The Chinese skit players change these faces quickly so that

instant changes in expressions are noted.

efficient and effective way. We can also

This bag is mainly designed for person going to a
meeting or going to give a presentation and he takes
only the de-attachable slip bag and attends the

not have to carry the entire bag. On the shoulder we
have twill tape webbing because it is handy as well as it
is quite cheaper than leather. We can also use this bag
for traveling purposes as it has many pockets to keep
