Deepak Portrait

Hi, I'm Deepak

I graduated with a Bachelor of Design in Interior Architecture, and quietly switched canvases somewhere along the way. Interior design taught me to think about how people move through a space, where they pause, what they reach for. Turns out product design is the same job, just on a smaller surface with bigger problems to solve.

Close to two years, as a product designer at a startup, and I work with other AI startups to take them from zero to one, that fuzzy stage where the product is still figuring out what it wants to be, and someone needs to make it feel like a real thing.

Right now I'm focused on products, figuring out what good design even means when the interface has to share the work with a model. It's early, it's messy, and it's the most interesting problem I've worked on so far.

Fun facts about me!

Ritual

Ritual

Coffee, mostly. But anything with caffeine works. It keeps things moving.

Collaboration

Collaboration

Ideas get sharper in conversation. Half strategy, half "which café next?" that's where the good stuff happens.

Flow

Flow

I don't chase ideas. They show up when I'm moving, observing, or just letting things connect.

Soft Corner

Soft Corner

I have a soft spot for dogs and cats. This is Dinkie - not mine, but close enough to count.

Atmosphere

Atmosphere

Films, songs. Something light in the background. Keeps me relaxed. Keeps the work fast.

Got a complex product that needs clarity?

That's exactly what I do.

Whether you're shaping something from zero, untangling an older product that's grown in too many directions, or building a design system that needs to actually scale.

I'd love to hear what you're working on.
