Highly competitive fashion market constantly needs to ‘refresh’ product ranges which led to the appearance of small collections of merchandise. The rich traditional heritage, across the length and width of our country, offers diverse inspiration to the textile designers today. In this context, the designs of Manipur both architectural as well as textile designs were explored as an option to develop a new range of lifestyle products which is unique and distinct in its category. The study was an attempt to develop lifestyle products through surface enrichment using transfer printing. Textiles and architectural designs of Manipur were collected form secondary sources and adapted through CorelDraw for suitability to printing without compromising their traditional values.
