The three-day design expo, ‘InsiderX 2016’ was inaugurated at Hitex Exhibition Centre on Friday. The weeklong celebrations will feature many attractions, the major one being a unique design street in Banjara Hills a la the Milan Style Street.

Organised by the Institute of Indian Interior Designers (IIID), Hyderabad, the event is curated by architects and interior designers at the Institute. It is specifically crafted for the interior design fraternity and aims at bringing the vast industry on to a single platform. The design expo is primarily a B2B design expo showcasing emerging trends and contemporary design solutions in architecture and interior design.

The event is also a part of ‘Jashn-e-Design’, a carnival of celebration that marks the 20th anniversary of the IIID Hyderabad chapter. The celebrations will feature a weeklong jamboree of interior design related events like Heritage walk, tour of modern architectural landmarks around Hitec City and Gachibowli, movies, student competitions, designers' portfolios, a speakers' forum at Avasa featuring national and international architects and designers.

Speaking at the occasion, IIID-HRC Chairperson, Sona Chatwani said, “Riding on the name and the experience that we derived from the first InsiderX Design expo, we came up with a larger format for the IIID Showcase InsiderX 2016, with over 30 verticals represented, 250+ brands and 130+ stalls.”

“Last year, we had a great mix of architects, interior designers, design related trade professionals, builders, project managers, MEP consultants, as well as industry representation from defence, government and the corporate sectors and serious home-builders that showed up.

Being at the cusp of development of the two Telugu States, we think that we are strategically placed to build a stronger industry presence through this medium,” she added. TRS MP, K Kavitha was present at the event along with other guests that included award winning architect Sanjay Puri and Pratap Jadhav, IIID President.
