Bangalore, India (IST)
I am a trained graphic designer with around twenty years of experience. I currently work as a consulting Art Director at Speaking Tiger Books, India, former art director at Rupa Publications India. I started my journey in publishing with Penguin Books, India (where I worked as a Senior Designer). Since then I have designed book covers as well as full books (book interiors), for books of various genres—collaborating with illustrators, photographers, calligraphers as well as folk artists. I have also designed book covers for publishers like Harpercollins India, Aleph Book Company, India and Bloomsbury India as a freelance designer.
Apart from adult books, I also art-direct and design children's picture books, working closely with editors, authors and illustrators where i get to suggest suitable illustration styles and recommend illustrators as well as plan the structure of the text and design it interestingly for children.
