About
Textile design graduate from NIFT Kolkata with a minor in Home & Living accessories, focused on creating aesthetic yet practical home furnishings and textile solutions. I’m drawn to craft-led work, where fabric behavior, materiality, and real production constraints shape the final design.
I’ve collaborated with artisan communities and industry partners to develop handloom (Ponduru-Jamdani) and Kalamkari collections, digital print sarees, and tactile soft-furnishing prototypes. My approach blends site-based design exposure, sampling and production coordination, and detail-oriented execution within time-bound timelines.
