Design that starts with the people using it.

I am a graphic designer based in Dhaka. In 2013 I began designing websites at Lead IT Limited, then moved into senior design work at Ardent Advertising and into brand and business development at EXL Communication. Today I am Manager (Creative) at Sunlight Digital.

Alongside agency work, I have coordinated, led and taught on training and development programs for the ICT Division, the Ministry of Education, and BASIS-SEIP under the Ministry of Finance and BASIS. At Genex Infosys I coordinated the full training of 2,000 students across 17 districts.

the process.

  1. 01

    meet the client

    I start by learning about the client's product or service, their audience, their design preferences and what the design has to achieve, so the final work is built around the people who will use it.

  2. 02

    outline and align

    Before design starts, I write a design outline and go through it with the client, so we agree on direction and expectations early.

  3. 03

    design and refine

    For websites and apps that means wireframes, storyboards, user flows and site maps. For print and brand work it means illustrations, infographics and layouts. Images, fonts and layouts are reviewed and refined until they hold together.

  4. 04

    launch and promote

    The work goes out through campaigns across social media, email, mobile apps and website content, planned together with the design.
