New Delhi, August 03, 2018: WADe ASIA 1st platform of Asia to celebrate Women-led Development in Architecture, Design and Art began in 2016 as an enthusiastic nationwide platform for Woman Architects & Designers of India. Today, this founded by Vertica Dvivedi has appeared as a platform to Celebrate & Spread “Women-led Development” in India, great event platform for connecting brands with specifiers, architects and designers. It is an attempt to bring-out women in architecture & interior design on a common stage to exchange ideas, identify contribution, discuss issues and execute solutions.
In 2016, WADe had the attendance of eminent architects & interior designers from across India. Some of the delegates include Guest of Honour Dr. Kiran Bedi, Chief Guest Dr. Nazma Heptulla, Designers Sussanne Khan & her mom, Zarine Khan. Celebrity Television actor Hussain Kuwajerwala anchored the event.
WADe Asia 2017 had an apt dose of entertainment as well. Keynote addresses were by Ar. Christopher Benninger, Ar. Nela De Zoysa from Sri Lanka, and Padma Bhushan awardee artist Sethi. Bollywood Actress Bhagyashree and Singer Hema Sardesai also graced the event with their presence.
Amidst celebrations, recognitions and togetherness, there were deep emotional moments as well. When the name of octogenarian Didi Contractor was called on stage, Actress Bhagyashree who was on stage to give away the award stepped down to present the award to Didi sitting among the audience. The beautiful actress with the lovely heart said, “Didi doesn’t have to come up the stage for award. We will go to her.”
Quick talks by Change Makers, a series of short talks by Young & Enterprising Designers on varied subjects was also loved by all.
Popular celebrity designer Manjeet Bhullar was a part of panel discussion along with daughter Anhad Bhullar, Ar. Bobby Mukherjee from Mumbai, Dr. Sheetal Jain of Luxe Analytics, and author of Decoding Luxe Mahul Brahma.
