👋 Hey there! I am Santosh Sonnad, a product designer based in Karnataka, India. With 2 years of experience as a product designer, I've designed web and mobile experiences for cross-platform applications. I've worked with fast-paced startups and mid-sized companies across B2B, B2C, and SaaS domains, with projects in HR-tech, e-commerce, and business.

I believe that great design should not only look beautiful but also serve a purpose. I approach each project with a focus on understanding user needs and creating solutions that are both functional and delightful to use.

My Design Principles

My Design Principles

Kaizen

The word ‘Kaizen’ means continuous improvement. Never settle for mediocrity—There's always room to make our designs better, one iteration at a time.

Details Matter (A Lot)

The design details of a product reflects its brand. From spacing, typography, component sizing to micro-copy, each element should be meticulously crafted.

Design for humans

Good design balances between aesthetics & functionality while showing empathy towards the user's emotions, behaviours, and jobs-to-be-done.

Delight by Design

Subtle interactions, playful animations, and creative copy—Tiny design elements like these create magical user experiences.
