Good design starts
with asking why.

Portrait of Rhea Babaji

Rhea Babaji

UI/UX Designer

I love figuring out why some designs work, and why some just don’t.

I started out in computer science, but found my way into design when I realised I was far more interested in how people actually experience the things we build.

I care about the thinking behind a design, not just how it looks.

I like understanding why a decision works, experimenting with different approaches, and finding the one that feels right for the problem.

At the same time, I really enjoy the visual side of design. I’ve learnt that how something looks can completely change how it feels to use, so for me, good design has always been a balance of both.

Interspace — Making art discovery feel intuitive

E-commerce, UI/UX Design

Interspace connects Indian artists with wider audiences through a curated platform for discovering and collecting art. We designed the digital experience to make a large and varied collection easier to explore, while giving the artists and their work the space to tell their stories.
The experience brings together discovery, storytelling and commerce – helping people find art through artists, collections, mediums and styles, without losing the considered feel of a gallery experience.

Breakaway — Designing a digital home for journeys beyond the usual

Travel, UI/UX Design

Breakaway creates offbeat, curated journeys that connect travellers with India through its people, culture, food and craft. We redesigned the website to bring that spirit of discovery online – making its wide range of experiences easier to explore while giving the stories, places and people behind each journey room to come through.
The experience balances inspiration with discovery, helping travellers understand what makes Breakaway different and find journeys shaped around the way they want to experience India.
