Passionate

Hi,

I am

Prasam

I am a Mechanical Engineer turned Designer, a hopeless romantic, and an optimist, who believes in making ‘the omelette out of broken eggs’. I believe in the theory of ‘paramhamsa’ imbuing the best of everything in my life. Being a worshiper of aesthetics, I also value a raw, almost childlike perspective to design, creating a provocation, rather than a solution. Breaking down a problem into its basic building blocks and approaching it in a whimsical manner often impresses me. Being an extrovert, I love working in teams, not to mention being around people in general. It helped me learn a lot so far.
