Our Journey

From Vision to Voice

Educator. Researcher. Cultural Commentator. Design Thinker.

Welcome to a space where design meets dharma, where pedagogy challenges propaganda, and where narratives are reclaimed with purposeI’m Prof. Vikram Arora, an academician and design educator with over a decade of experience in architecture, spatial storytelling, Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS), and critical pedagogy. My work spans classrooms, field research, narrative writing, and public discourse—all aimed at challenging intellectual homogenization and reviving civilizational consciousness through education and design.

🧭 What I Stand For

  • Authentic education, free from institutional politics and ideological bias

  • Integration of indigenous knowledge into modern design and architecture

  • Narrative sovereignty—ensuring we tell our own stories, rooted in our culture

  • Ethical resistance to global systems that undermine local identities


🎓 My Academic Focus

My ongoing research and teaching work focuses on:

  • Narrative-based gamification in design education

  • Comparative frameworks between Western modularity and Indian vernacular systems

  • Critical analysis of media influence, education politics, and cultural distortion

  • Using ancient treatises like Mayamatam and Samrangana Sutradhar to reshape architecture pedagogy


🧱 Beyond the Classroom

Through blogs, books, and talks, I use storytelling as activism. Whether questioning global financial systems, unpacking Bollywood biases, or advocating for natural living and dietary consciousness, I believe in intellectual integrity and courage.

My goal isn’t just to teach—but to unlearn colonial legacies, rebuild dharmic thinking, and design a more conscious society.
