The Indian Institute of Art and Design (IIAD) is a contemporary design institute nestled in New Delhi, a city regarded as India’s epicenter of arts, culture, design, and business. The independent design school aspires to challenge the boundaries of creativity by offering its students innovative approaches to education that prepares them for careers in Communication Design, Interior Architecture Design, Fashion Design, and Fashion Management. IIAD’s learner-centric curriculum and pedagogy are one of the most unique propositions of the Institute. Design, by definition, is about problem-solving and requires the practitioner to think of creative, but viable solutions to problems facing the end-user, the client, the organization, the community or the country at large. IIAD stands by the belief that identifying a design solution is an intellectual process of undeniable value.

IIAD is distinct in a way that it was conceived with the commitment to provide internationally paralleled design education in India and, an earnest desire to help students fall in love with learning again. To help realize this, the Institute partnered with Kingston School of Art, Kingston University, London, a pioneer in art and design education. This way students enrolling themselves for any design programme at IIAD are assured access to education benchmarked against the best in the world. Kingston University has been ranked with some of the most coveted global forces in the field of Art and Design education by leading global career and education networks like QS World University Rankings, The Complete University Guide and Times Higher Education World University Rankings to name a few. The Institute’s 75,000 sqft Campus is located in the Okhla Industrial Estate, an industrial suburb of New Delhi in South Delhi. This was established by National Small Industries Corporation (NSIC) and interestingly was one of 12 such estates being developed across India to encourage small industries.
