Hi again! Here's a lil more about me

IMG_2689.heic

I’m Urvashi, a curious problem-solver who loves designing experiences that make life a little easier and a lot more delightful for users. I treat every project like a puzzle - solving problems, prototyping ideas, and asking way too many “what ifs.” I believe great design starts with a solid “why,” not just a pretty UI. 

​

For me, great design is about balance - form and function, creativity and strategy, user needs and business goals. I believe the best design isn’t just visually elegant - it’s operationally efficient, technically feasible, and deeply considerate of real-world limitations​​​

My design mantra

"Design thrives on balance"

- blending creativity, strategy, and empathy to create experiences that feel effortless, intuitive, and meaningful for every user.
