Exploring Creativity at Russia’s Lebedev Studio: A SXILL & CDS Visit

On a recent international trip, the founders of SXILL and Chandigarh Design School were invited to Lebedev Studio, Russia’s premier design studio. Known for its innovative approach and global recognition, the studio offered an inspiring environment for creative exploration.

One standout feature was the owner’s extensive “Do Not Disturb” card collection from across the world — a small glimpse into the studio’s fascinating and imaginative culture. The visit provided the founders with new ideas, stories, and creative narratives that they plan to bring back and share with students and collaborators.
