Hi, I’m Roshni!


I'm a graphic designer from Chennai, India, currently based in New York. I hold an MFA in Communications Design from Pratt Institute, where I also worked with the Office of International Affairs. Prior to that, I contributed to Ashvita’s, a cultural space in Chennai.

My work is grounded in an interest in the tactility of handmade objects and analog processes. My visual language and design approach is shaped by experiments in materials and textures.

Pudiyador

Visual Identity
Pudiyador (“anew” in Tamil) is a community-based educational organisation that works with marginalised communities in Chennai, India. Pudiyador’s goal is to enable all children, women and communities to act as engines of their own empowerment through access to relevant education, quality healthcare and meaningful employment.

Pudiyador’s requirements mainly included a design refresh that reflected the goals of the organisation, while retaining the existing logo and brand colours. Keeping this in mind, the following design language was developed, with the aim of conveying a sense of optimism, positivity and joy.
