E15: Mukul Goyal - Always push your boundaries

<p>"My best design is still to come. A successful design needn't always be your best design." - Mukul Goyal. The versatile designer has created many acclaimed designs in home decor, furniture, art, jewellery, installations and sculpture. Though he is often known for his lean men series of home decor, Goyal enjoys experimenting whether through different materials or mediums. For instance, his installation 'Flying Locomotives' adorns the new Mumbai international airport. Goyal is a Fellow of Royal Society of Arts, London and an alumnus of Domus Academy, Milan, National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad and the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur.</p> <p>Listen to the podcast as he talks about pushing his boundaries and why he calls himself an accidental designer.</p> <p>You can check out the Maharani Talks on Instagram at www.instagram.com/maharanitalks</p> <p>MUSIC: Lights by Sappheiros https://soundcloud.com/sappheirosmusic</p> <p>Show Notes:</p> <p>• Childhood dream of being an inventor [01:18]<br /> • Accidental designer [05:06]<br /> • Facing resistance during early days [26:34]<br /> • Lean men series [28:38]<br /> • Going past a successful design [36:10]<br /> • What's your design process?
