How to Make Appealing & Unique Indian Design?

Anything that is distinctly from the Indian subcontinent makes a design Indian. Motifs, forms, colours and/ or visual treatment; putting a paisley on something, and so on, can make a design Indian. From colourful folk items of Kutchh, to earthy colours of block prints, or to certain organic elements like depictions of lotuses, all constitute 'Indian-ness'. Yet, it can be just the content that makes something Indian i.e. what something constitutes, and not just the way it is represented. A broad example of this would be the many number of symbols that India has in its culture, and which represent this part of the world – such as the cow, the lotus, elephants, a little oil lamp and so on.
