[Raju Peddada IV], now 4, and his dad, designer Raju Peddada III, enjoy a light moment on the Dandonda rug they designed. The younger Raju drew the rug's design when he was 2. "It's therapy to see him draw," says the elder Raju. "I see his hand moving, and it's not like he's stopping and thinking. It just flows from his mind."
