Abstract: Visual stories rooted in IKS, such as folk arts and symbolic motifs, connect ancient knowledge to modern communication design. Using patterns such as Madhubani and Warli helps designers create content that feels culturally relevant and supports inclusivity and identity. A key case study that exemplifies this integration is the collaboration between student designers and Patta Chitra artisans in Odisha for a branding project. In this project, design students partnered with local artists to develop sustainable packaging for regional handloom products, incorporating authentic Patta Chitra motifs and narratives directly into the visual identity. The process involved workshops hosted by artisans, hands-on motif adaptation, and iterative feedback sessions that ensured both cultural fidelity and contemporary appeal. This collaboration not only enriched the students’ understanding of the traditional significance behind each motif but also resulted in packaging that effectively communicated regional identity and supported local artisans economically. Such case studies illustrate how integrating IKS into design education equips future professionals to apply traditional motifs in current commercial contexts while fostering cultural awareness and ethical practice.
