About

Hi, I'm Gaurav Dalbhanjan

Multidisciplinary product designer bridging engineering logic and human-centered craft.

I hold a Master's in Industrial Design from Savannah College of Art and Design, USA and a Bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering from Savitribai Phule Pune University, India.

As a child, I was always sketching and redesigning the world around me, unaware that everything had once been designed by someone. That curiosity soon turned into a passion — an urge to understand how things are designed, inside and out. That's how I fell in love with both science and engineering.

Shifting from engineering to design wasn't easy, but it gave me an upper hand. Engineering is rooted in logic — mathematics, physics, calculations. Design is about philosophy, poetry, emotions and human experiences. The transition was tough for someone used to machining, welding and calculating stress-strain, but engineering gave me something invaluable: a "never give up" mindset and a belief that the impossible can be achieved.

I stand for Good, Ethical, Creative, Sustainable and Innovative Design — design that speaks about life, love, joy, action, culture, desire, dreams and needs, that positively impacts human life. I design for a smarter, safer, minimal, efficient and better future — not just for us, but for generations to come.

Let's create that future together! — GD
