Debashish Paul

I am a seasoned product designer with over a decade of experience working with some of the largest tech companies worldwide, bringing my visionary design skills to the table. My passion lies in crafting digital products and interfaces that prioritize the user experience, ensuring that they are not only visually appealing but also highly functional and intuitive. Drawing on my expertise and talent, I strive to create innovative and simple products that make a significant impact.

I’ve also invented a various systems and interfaces that have guided new products and established industry-wide UI patterns. In my free time, I write poetry and read to unwind. I crave getting lost in the rainforests or the crowded streets to shoot pictures. Good art, thoughtful cinema, old Bollywood songs, or a cup of hot beverage will always make me happy.

And I love monochromes! 💛
