Meaning of the name
[edit]The name of the institute has been derived from two words, intuition and laboratory. Intuition is the ability to foresee and to immediately perceive the truth without conscious reasoning. Laboratory is any place where a team works on the elaboration of a discovery, creation or a research project. Hence, the name means a living laboratory of reflection and the production of creative solutions.
Aim and History
[edit]The aim of the school has been to produce high quality professionals whose profiles meet the specific needs of the graphic design and visual communication sectors in India, France and across the world. With the newly begun school in India, the syllabus has been especially skewed to meet the professional demands of the visual communications industry in India and to tap the potential that design holds in the country. école intuit.lab through its students have built solid relationships with over 800 companies in France and other countries.
In the year 2000, after rather long stints in Parisian design companies, Clément Derock and Frédéric Lalande got together to create a design company that was the first of its kind in France. It combined separate skill sets – new Internet-related technology, mixed media branding and traditional design skills – to create a truly new agency, "Seenk". Based on the belief that métissage or crossbreeding is crucial to the evolution of species, Seenk adopted mixed media as a part of each of their branding or communication exercise at a time when no other company was doing so. The consequence of this constant attempt at merger of media was that a new breed of designers came into their own and flourished. This was a breed of designers that did not exist before due to the gap that existed in design education - a gap between academia and the professional world. That's why Clément and Fréderic tied up with Patrick Felices, experimented in the field of graphic design education. Patrick had been the Dean of a noted Paris based design school for many years before he took on the mantle of co-founder and Dean at école intuit.lab to 2018. clement and Frédéric remain in charge of the school and these campuses.
With a consistently expanding list of firsts (the first school to introduce new subjects in design in the 1980s, the first to truly promote international collaborations, the first to regularly engage in mixed media design), école intuit.lab has led the way in design education. Today école intuit.lab is one of the top best design schools in Paris. And for the first time has brought itself to the doorstep of students outside of Europe, best place to be in Asia, to Mumbai, India.
