The Plated Project x Le15 Cafe by Pooja Dhingra

For the inaugral series, I designed a limited edition Artplate for The Plated Project, in collaboration with Pooja Dhingra's Le15. 

To buy my Artplate, you can visit the Pop-up from 9th October 2019 upto 14th November, at Le15 Cafe in Colaba. It can be purchased online through their website https://www.theplatedproject.com/product-page/game-nights 

Since the theme is 'A Quarter of Nostalgia', I have created a colourful and vibrant design around the games we'd play as children. 

1 plate = 14 nutritious meals for 1 child, through the NGO, Save The Children.

For this beautiful project, my artwork has been shared and I have been quoted on The Hindu where I spoke about my experience. My name has also been featured on Mumbai Mirror for the same.

Humans of Bombay (Official Humans of Bombay Stories Pvt. Ltd.) is India’s largest blog with reach of over a million, sharing stories of individuals that inspire, wonder, celebrate and beautify the human existence. I have worked as a freelance illustrator on a comic strip called ‘Savage Sweetu’, which was featured weekly on their separate page on Instagram called ‘We, The People’, which covers stories pan India. It has been such a pleasure to be working with them, a comic that not only lets out a giggle but also makes you think and agree to the content, and simply relate themselves with it. 

Due to the amusing  comic content and relatable depiction of reality through comedic illustrations, the comics have sparked a lot of conversations and issues on its comments section. Viewers have pointed out the details and discussed issues on the topic of the comics almost on every posts! The posts have garnered an extremely positive response from the viewers, with an average of 7,000 likes (where their previous comics had a maximum of 2,000 likes), with the highest likes reaching upto 27,000 likes!

Sweetu is indeed Savage, pertaining to her name #SavageSweetu, check out their Instagram page with the comic Strip here and their main website here.

Here are some of the comic strips done.

Almost every year  S.S.A. Architects (officially known as Sandeep Shikre & Associate Pvt, Ltd.) holds a full day workshop where different teams within the firm fro different branches, sectors and locations (i.e. Architecture Sector, Engineering Sector, Interior Design Sector, Project Management sector, Mumbai team, Pune team, etc.) come together to celebrate, collaborate and express their feelings and experiences.

Headphone Zone is India’s first exclusive Headphone Retail Brand featuring the World's Finest Headphones from brands renowned for their sound, design and style. It is one stop online destination for exclusive headphones, earphones, Amps, DACs, Audiophiles and other personal audio devices. 

I worked in collaboration with Hardik Gandhi (Graphic Designer, Artist and illustrator) for Headphone Zone's website icon pack for their homepage. The brief was clear to create minimalist icons and depict exactly what the category is as many people might not be very familiar with the concept of advanced personal-use audio gears. Very minute differences between two icons ( eg. Wireless and In-Ear Earphones, etc. ) that have a minor difference between the visual icon but have a different concept of functioning in reality had to be taken care of.
