Hi, I am Siddhant Agarwal, I Design Stories
A final year product design student studying at ISD Rubika Valenciennes, France As a budding designer, I am in search of a cosmic experience,one that is both constructive as well as intuitive. For me design stems from curiosity. Curiosity to find the answers of “why” in everything and a craving to redefine it. I strongly believe what we experience is what we design thus, I am on a lookout for new challenges and more exposure that’ll help me broaden my horizon and develop holistic products in my quest to create meaningful stories.
Looking for a 6 months Pre-Employment internship starting March 2020’

Introduction
Multifaceted Shenanigans
LIFE THROUGH DESIGN.
Hollistic Designer Individual
From touchlines to sketchlines “What have you learnt?”, you may ask? Life is a full circle. The first time around when I went to the US, it was for my football tryouts. I wanted to get through to the big leagues of academia with my passion for football. The next time when I went to the same place, it was for an entirely different reason. I was exactly where I wanted to be.. among the big leagues, now by the virtue of being a product designer. My myriad of experiences are what make me a complete person today. I come with unique influences from India’s capital- New Delhi. By the virtue of being a go-getter and having supportive parents, I have been exposed to various Asian, European and North American countries. Each of these countries came with its own set of culture for me to get inspired from.

What Happens Today

The tall tables around the bar are often small and get cluttered. People usually request that extra table accessories be removed due to space constraints. Items on the table like ice box, water container etc become a nuisance once the space is fully occupied. Hence losing it’s purpose.

Efficient Team Leader As a team leader, it was imperative for me to keep my team members motivated during the project. I not only walked my own journey but also walked the growth journeys of my team. Right from developing and crystallising the concept of the product, to deciding the design, features, and colours of the product, and eventually developing its marketing strategy that matched the needs of the client, I played an eminent role at every step of the pre-development and development process.
