My M.S. thesis: a beginner electronics kit for teens and early-adult learners who find breadboarding intimidating. Field research showed the problem was never effort it was friction. Components are tiny and fragile, resistor bands are unreadable, 2D diagrams don't translate to the board, and parts get lost between sessions. StarterSpark answers all of that at the level of the system redesigned components, visual overlays, visual-heavy instructions and inventory-ready storage, each engineered to reinforce the others so a first-time builder can succeed independently.

A line of furniture that explores complex, overlapping patterns through simple joinery echoing the fundamental archetypes of geometry. Every piece is built from a single 32×32×1040mm wooden section, using domino joinery to generate unexpected visual richness from the strictest of constraints.

Developed in collaboration with Easter Seals of Southeastern Pennsylvania. A physical therapist identified the need for an alternative control system for bumper cars one that accommodates children with physical and motor disabilities. The stock joystick is challenging for children with limited fine motor control, so DriveDeck replaces it with large, easy-to-press buttons, giving more children the chance to participate independently.

A complete ergonomic redesign of the Pentel pen pivoting away from the traditional cylindrical form toward an unconventional shape that is easier to hold and support. The goal was a better writing experience, a nib-retracting mechanism, and a premium presence, all designed with real manufacturing processes in mind.

A redesign of the external enclosure for a portable tire inflator keeping all the same internal components while adding new functionality and designing for injection molding and assembly. The key move: a mount that attaches the inflator directly under a bike saddle, with rider-visibility features built into the form.

An ambient light enclosure designed entirely around snap-fit assembly no screws, no glue. It houses an Adafruit Circuit Playground, a lithium-ion battery, and a custom light pipe that channels the board’s NeoPixel LEDs into a soft ambient glow. Every decision was driven by the constraints of 3D printing and clean snap-fit geometry.

A global-scale motorsport and entertainment destination for the Quiddiya Investment Company, developed in collaboration with Benoy. Through the design development stage I worked across the plan set, revising as the scheme evolved and running clash detection against plumbing, electrical, HVAC and structure in Navisworks. The piece I owned end to end was the physical user interface: 3D-modelled signage and wayfinding totems, specified with real materials, finishes, lighting and fabrication detail, then placed through the plan layouts. It was an architecture project, but that part was product design.

A 17-storey commercial IT park near Magathane metro in Mumbai, for the Chankdak Group in collaboration with Woods Bagot. The lower-ground and ground floors carry a D-mart supermarket, offices above. I worked from concept to schematic design on 3D modelling, coordination and construction documentation, including detailed facade elements and, at the other end of the scale, the reception desk. The desk is where this connects back to industrial design: an object drawn in plan, elevation, section and 3D, in silver travertine and dark bronze metal.

Smritivan is a memorial to the lives lost in the Bhuj earthquake, built with Design Factory India and Vastu Shilpa Consultants. I worked on the exhibits: the graphic language for each gallery and the fabrication itself, carrying pieces from 3D visualisation through tender submission to the CAD and fabrication drawings behind them. Of the three projects here it is the most hands-on, and the closest to the making side of industrial design I do now.
