Form follows Science

English to Hindi Marketing Marketing slogan, tagline
I am translating the manual of a household item. The client has coined a tagline for it as "Form follows Science". Here is their explanation for this tagline:


Form follows science is a takeoff of the famous architectural expression – form follows function – quoted by famous architect Louis Sullivan

It refers to the fact that Item's form (her shape and design both aesthetically and functionally – is determined by science (research and development)

That science drove her visuals.

Any suggestions for a catchy tagline in Hindi?

vigyan prerit roop

One possibility is विज्ञन प्रेरित रूप (vigyan prerit roop) or विज्ञान से प्रेरणा लेते रूप (vigyan se prerna lete roop.

If you take a literal meaning of "follows", then you will have to say:
विज्ञान का अनुगमन/अनुसरण करते रूप (vigyan ka anugaman/anusaran karte roop)

In the above, roop can also be substituted by aakaar (आकार).

Since here form actually means design, you can also use अभिक्लप (abhikalp), the Hindi term used for design, in place of roop.

In fact अभिकल्प gives some more possibilities:
विज्ञान आधारित अभिकल्पन (vigyan aadharit abhikalpan)
विज्ञान आधारित अभिकल्प (vigyan aadharit abhikalp)
विज्ञान केंद्रित अभिकल्प/अभिकल्पन (vigyan kendrit abhikalp/abhikalpan, and so on.
