Design is experience

Can one create a destination in the middle of nowhere, bang in between two bustling cities? 7 was the answer. A highway food court in the middle of nowhere, an oasis, a natural stopover, a destination for people who have already tasted the fruit of urbanization. Come to think of it, the only dream of entrepreneurs who started this concept was to provide clean rest-rooms and a hygienic food place on indian highways. It has already notched up sales of 150 thousand rupees every day and is all set for scale-up, and it has created a new highway culture.

We can progress practice but can we also demonstrate philosophy?

By creating a new paradigm, methodology and system of development for India that is equally relevant elsewhere.

By shifting the focus from needs to dreams to enable the creation of equal futures
