Design BarnWe have recently invested in, designed and launched a 15,000 sq.ft sustainable and independent Open Innovation facility SPREAD DESIGN BARN design with enterprise, government, start-ups, policy bodies, educational institutions to work together/ learn together on how to leverage design as a strategic imperative for customer experience, innovation, transformation and growth.
The Design of SpreadDesign FarmSo, where do we work? We work at the SPREAD DESIGN FARM, a green campus with traditional mandala architecture, home to over a 100 trees, natural rainwater harvesting, a 15 megawatt solar power plant that has us completely off the grid and fruit and vegetables farm, supplying fresh farm food to 40 (including support staff) co-workers every day.
Expertise / ExperienceThe team at SPREAD has had a great deal of experience in emergent domains in India like Retail, Education, Healthcare, Hospitality and in the business of brands. The team is credited to have played a significant role in creating over 10 million sq.ft of retail for the Future Group in India. Besides they have created brand Manipal and are associated with this Education and Medical Group for the last two decades.
While the promoters of SPREAD have been closely associated with large scale Government projects like Commonwealth Games, Cochin International Airport (CIAL) and Kochi Metro, recently SPREAD has been assigned transformational projects for Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, Government of India, and the State Ministries of Agriculture, Rural Development, Urban Development, IT&BT ministries in the Government of Karnataka.
The TeamThe promoters of SPREAD, Sonia Manchanda, Mohammad Javed and Girish Raj have spent over two decades in Creative businesses in India, first in advertising and then design. While Sonia has had short stints in advertising at Contract Advertising, Mudra, Girish has worked for about 20 years in Contract Advertising & McCann Erickson while Javed has spent over a decade with McCann Erickson. Together Sonia & Girish were co-founders of Idiom Design and Consulting, India’s first homegrown multidisciplinary design firm, where Javed was the Chief Executive Officer. They ran Idiom for about 10 years, just before they founded Spread.
At SPREAD, they work closely with a leadership team made up of Rajeshwari Math (A graphic designer, leading the Learning / Training vertical), Sridhar Chakravarthy (An architect, leading the Experience Design vertical), Ekta Manchanda (A graphic designer, leading the Business / Brand Design vertical). This core leadership team are associate partners and have worked together with the promoters for over 13 years. This team is augmented by Debjyoti Roy (Interaction Lead), Sreeraj (New Media Lead) and Manya (Education/Training Lead) which together make up the five revenue verticals at SPREAD.
The various verticals are supported by a ten member design team, compromising graphic, product, interaction and new media designers, a five member studio, and a five member design/operations management/ production Team.

Projects / Services We possibly have one of the most diverse portfolio of work for a design firm in India. From physical retail experiences, to digital retail, to interaction design for a global Tourism, Travel and Travel related App. From experiential museums to interaction design for an e-learning portal. Plus the design of 100’s of brands in FMCG, Retail, Education, Healthcare and Hospitality.
But what has recently got us a lot of recognition is the work we have been doing for National Highways to become user friendly and the project to position Organics and Millets as next generation SMART food, for the Ministry of Agriculture, Government of Karnataka.
Clients / Revenue MixA mix of short term projects that last upto six months in the Private Sector and long term Annuities from the Government make up our business.
In the Indian Design Sector, the Government has emerged as one of the key spenders, seeking long term social and behavioural transformation in various sectors. This coupled with Demonetisation and GST has lowered Private sector spending in Design. Hence 70% of our revenues come from the Government.

XIX COMMONWEALTH GAMES DELHI 2010
The Ashoka Chakra spirals out.
With a vision to present Delhi as a truly global city at the 2010 Commonwealth Games, the first major sporting event in Asia after the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Looking at the architecture, art forms, historical monuments and culture of the national capital, while retaining an international language, we created the brand identity for CWG inspired by India’s National symbol, the Ashok Chakra, which represents a combination of inclusiveness, freedom, unity and power.
THE SIGNATURE ELEMENT IS A REPRESENTATION OF THE LOGO, A DYNAMIC AND ENERGETIC FORM THAT ALLOWS FOR GREAT FLEXIBILITY OF USAGE FOR THE GAMES LOOK ACROSS VARIOUS FORMATS, WITHOUT TAMPERING WITH THE LOGO.

VIDA
In today’s dynamic digital age, a static museum with passive exhibits is not enough. Students are engaged if they are able to relate and ‘feel’ that the museum is a living artistic expression and embodiment of their own body — its countless miracles, the coming together of art and science, its possibilities and limitations.
Inspired by “The Journey of Life”, VIDA, the Vydehi Museum is a center of excellence in medical discovery and research that invites students on a journey through life.

AQT is a wait in anticipation. A countdown to a Quest for thrill, fun and Entertainment. The AQT logo has been inspired by a combination of the Q and the Film Loader from the analogue era. While on one hand this adds a feel of vintage that some classic films are, the loader is also a countdown.The Q integrates with the A and T to create a balanced and unique logo. The feel of the logo is very dramatic. The film leader opens up the potential for animation of the logo.
The AQT logo is very modern, with a modern, block type face. Its sweep motion has been inspired by the countdown motion of the film loader juxtaposed on the Q.AQT

The Spread ModelWord of mouth and referrals have been our single largest source of new business and most of out engagements are designed to influence this word of mouth engine.
This also works as a point of differentiation. Firstly a lean and agile set up including investment in technology resources and a diverse talent pool allows us to turnaround complex design projects relatively faster. Coupled with this is a model of ‘insourcing’ which allows us to make films, Animation, AR VR experiences, High end visualization, Walkthroughs and simulate design mush faster than most design companies.
However, what really tips the scales in our favour is our strategic competencies, cross-disciplinary knowledge base, immersive design research, our ability to apply design thinking (we have a developed our own model called Design Sense) and transform them to design outcomes/ customer experiences. All this is made possible through the creation and usage of set of proprietary design thinking/ outcome/ ethnography/ culture tools that allow us to build/ demonstrate multiple what if scenarios.
Finally the Design Barn, our training, learning and open source, knowledge sharing and community space allows us to diffuse our innovations in design thinking, gives us knowledge leadership and helps the generation of enquiries thereby creating a pipeline for new projects.
