    • MPR: The Design Thinker, The Practitioner and The Evangelist covers his journey as a design thinker and practitioner in the roles of a furniture design expert of working at the intersections of craft design and technology, cane and bamboo, product semantics and furniture design during his student as well as faculty days at NID. As an evangelist, he developed design for development, education and bamboo crafts-centric philosophies that generated practice-based apprenticeships, livelihood, business opportunities, etc. to those especially at the bottom of the pyramid.

    • MPR’s Guiding Models: Pedagogies, course developments at NID for new design education and his books as role models, includes a collection of his well-known design models, research-centric discoveries and paradigms applied in his design courses with his students at NID. His two main books are exemplars of an indigenous design passion shared as a dream to motivate students, practitioners and researchers to undertake design-based and design-led scenarios and projects in mainly the craft-based design sectors for their development.

    • The Grandmaster: M.P. Ranjan and his perspectives on Design shares excerpts of his interactions as part of few significant interviews, excerpts from his keynote presentations, his personal blog writings and his book publications.

    • Remembering M.P. Ranjan is an eternal forum of his design colleagues, friends, students from academia and the industry who have recollected their times with him (inside and outside NID). This section acknowledges few of their thoughts on his demise in 2015.
