As part of our Indian Design in Focus series, we recently caught up with award-winning designer Anthony Lopez, Founder and Chief Designer of Lopez Design, a strategic design consultancy that helps organizations define their identity and build clear, cohesive branding systems.
Founded in 1997, Lopez Design has evolved into a multidisciplinary practice focused on strategy, branding, and experience design. The firm’s work spans brand, product, spatial, and service design—each shaped by a thoughtful, human-centered approach that blends creativity with purpose.
Guided by the philosophy of ‘Dare to be authentic,’ the studio’s design process emphasizes clarity, collaboration, and cultural relevance. Over the years, the studio has helped shape the identities of brands and organizations, including the Murugappa Group, Ayushman Bharat, Accel Atoms, and the Kartavya Path initiative.
Over the course of our conversation, Lopez reflects on what defines Indian design, how traditional craft informs modern practice, and why authenticity, clarity, and discernment remain central to meaningful design in an era shaped by technology and change.
