Communication Design

Fine Arts

Hello! I am a Fashion Design graduate, with a minor in Communication Design – a gold medalist from NIFT, India. Being associated with Fine Arts for 10 years and an avid reader, I love to integrate both the aspects into my designs. I love gaining new experiences and being inquisitive about the things around me.

The ingredients of my design recipe

The prime driver for me to take up any design project is curiosity. In what way can I create an impact? What realms am I getting to explore? Is there a symbiosis between the project and myself?

My projects are a chaotic culmination of empathy, emotions, research and data that finally land up  together in my design concepts.
