Merino Industries Ltd. hosted an exclusive evening of inspiration at the inaugural edition of Merino Manan, held at the Raajkutir Boutique Hotel in Kolkata. The event, themed “Thoughtful Design Solutions by Merino”, gathered leading architects, interior designers, and industry partners to explore how innovative design can transform user experiences.
Speaking at the event, Mr. Manoj Lohia, Director of Merino Industries, emphasized that design is more than aesthetics or functionality. “It is about creating meaningful solutions that resonate with users’ diverse needs,” he stated. The evening also showcased Merino’s latest collections, including the Sampada Laminate Collection, inspired by Indian textiles like Ikkat and Chikankari, and Mystik, a new restroom cubicle model that offers full-height privacy with a glossy finish.
Two renowned architects shared their perspectives on empathetic design, focusing on how inclusivity can enhance human experiences. The highlight of the evening was a keynote by Mr. Sanjoy Nag, acclaimed filmmaker, who drew parallels between storytelling and design, stressing the importance of empathy in both fields. In Kolkata, Merino’s commitment to innovation resonates strongly with the city’s design-conscious community, known for its rich cultural heritage and progressive approach to modern aesthetics. The success of Merino Manan marks the beginning of a nationwide journey, bringing thought leadership to India’s key metros.
