Research & Development
Atelier Satyendra Pakhalé
"Early on I got opportunities to be involved with some of the cutting edge innovative digital technologies. I had possibility to experiment with it and develop into product ideas. Some ideas became real and some exploration lead to another directions...
Over the years, collaboration with industry and at the same time creating studio projects, I realized that the process of taking project from conception into production is a magical one- complex and always challenging.
But there is a continuous curiosity that always drives the project."
