Lavnik PodDar
I am a product designer from the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad. I believe that technology should not just work—it should feel intuitive, have a personality, and be meaningful. My process is grounded in research and strategy, but I always make space for unconventional ideas to lead the way. I’m constantly trying to do things differently, craft sustainable solutions, and leave a positive impact on how people experience the world through design.

Journey
Foundations
Before discovering formal design, I was already knee-deep in creating. At a time when most kids were downloading games, I was busy building them, exploring 3D graphics, and diving deep into digital storytelling. Balancing my love for technology with an insatiable curiosity laid the foundation for everything that followed.
Life in NID
NID wasn't just about design—it was about seeing the world differently. Immersed in diverse design philosophies and challenging projects, my curiosity exploded beyond traditional boundaries. From physical prototypes to interactive experiences, I learned to blend strategy with spontaneous creativity. My work started earning recognition, awards, and features across design platforms, reinforcing that this was where I belonged.
Designing for Impact
After NID, my focus shifted to making design matter—tackling meaningful problems in healthcare, technology, and sustainability. Whether designing digital tools for rural healthcare or intuitive consumer products, my goal remains the same: build solutions that truly improve people's lives. Today, my work thrives at the intersection of thoughtful research, clear strategy, and unexpected, creative breakthroughs.
