Hi, I am Ayesha
Born in Hyderabad and based in Dubai, I am a multidisciplinary designer shaped by two cities rich in culture, contrast, and constant evolution. My practice sits at the intersection of research, strategy, and storytelling — exploring how design can bridge heritage and modernity.
A lifelong student of design, I am driven by a belief that creativity carries responsibility — to people, places, and the planet. I aim to craft experiences that are both seamless and sustainable, using design as a tool for empathy, inclusion, and lasting impact.
