“ Just because anything can be designed, should it be? "
With the ever-increasing complexity of the world, Designers have a responsibility to be mindful of what is being put out there. Critical thinking is imperative to produce solutions that do good rather than produce harm. I believe in being humble and polite to integrate stakeholders in critical conversations with teams to think critically about the impact of designs.
​Hi, I am Sandhini Ghodeshwar and I come from Delhi, India. I’m currently pursuing a Master’s in Design from the IIT Institute of Design. I am a walking bag of curiosity, as a human-centred designer I like to bring forth an equity-centred lens to my work and challenge people’s assumptions about the way of things.
​
With a background in computer science engineering, I bring analytical, critical and socio-technical thinking and creative thinking to advocate for human and planet centricity to drive responsible innovation.
