The "Design of a Post Box for India Post" is an important design project led by Prof. B. K. Chakravarthy from the Industrial Design Centre (IDC), IIT Bombay. The project aimed to redesign and modernise the post boxes used by India Post, ensuring they were functional, durable, and visually aligned with the evolving urban and rural landscapes of India. The redesign focused on improving usability while maintaining the iconic and familiar look of the post box. One of the primary goals of the project was to make the post boxes more user-friendly. The height, angle, and placement of the mail slot were optimised for ease of use, ensuring that people of varying heights, including children and elderly citizens, could comfortably deposit letters. India’s diverse and extreme weather conditions—ranging from heavy monsoons to scorching summers—necessitate the use of weather-resistant materials. The redesigned post boxes were constructed with durable, rust-resistant materials to withstand harsh outdoor environments, ensuring long-term usability and reducing maintenance costs. The redesigned post boxes for India Post were successfully implemented across the country, serving as a vital tool in connecting people, especially in rural and remote areas.
