Ayesha Taher
A multidisciplinary designer based in Dubai, originally from Hyderabad, India. My work explores how design can connect culture, technology, and sustainability to create experiences that feel both meaningful and human.
Trained in Product Design and Strategic Design Management at the Dubai Institute of Design and Innovation, I approach every project through research, systems thinking, and storytelling — blending strategy with empathy to craft purposeful outcomes.
I’m endlessly curious about how thoughtful design can inspire connection, celebrate culture, and shape a more sustainable future.
Design Journey
My design journey began with a fascination for transforming abstract ideas into tangible realities. Overcoming creative blocks and tight deadlines, I’ve turned challenges into opportunities. Today, I blend innovative thinking with meticulous execution, creating designs that captivate and serve a purpose, pushing boundaries, and inspiring meaningful connections.
Other Learnings
I have the experience of building sustainable structures, bio-gas fuel, speed breakers from recycled materials, carpentry, plumbing, tie and dye, and photography.
