crafting click-worthy, scroll-stopping stuff.
where pixels meet personality — brand & product design out of india, for the world. seven years in, still surprised by what a good blob can do.
work worth
watching.
design that tells a story.
inks & interfaces is a small, independent studio led by shivani rotliwala out of india — making brand & product design that's as warm and considered as a handwritten letter, but ships on a friday afternoon. we work with founders, in-house teams, and good humans who believe craft is the difference.
forty-two brands, eleven countries, two continents — and one rule: every project ends with something we'd put on the wall.
six steps,
no fluff. just craft.
discovery
three weeks of stakeholder calls, user interviews and audits — printed out and pinned to a wall — before a single pixel moves.
research
competitive teardowns, mood-boards, type studies. we read three books per project, on average. occasionally we count crayons.
wireframing
low-fi flows, real content. we'd rather throw away five sketches than ship one we weren't sure about.
visual design
type, color, motion, materials. this is where projects start to look like themselves — and start to feel like ours.
prototype
tappable, real-content, real-data. we test with humans, never with ourselves. cousins count.
final delivery
files organised, components named, a handover doc you'll actually use. usually a small surprise. always a thank-you.
crafting identities
with precision.
three core practices. one studio. every engagement starts with a 25-minute call where we figure out what you actually need.

ux design
end-to-end product design — web, native, prototype. shipped with notes, ready for hand-off.
branding

design
editorial, packaging, posters, decks. printed-and-mailed, or shipped as a pdf — both with the same level of care.
