Harshita Gupta

I am a design student with a growing interest in understanding how form, material, and human experience intersect. My approach to design is rooted in observation and questioning everyday objects, spaces, and systems that are often overlooked. I see design not just as a solution-driven discipline, but as a way to explore meaning, emotion, and context through making. Much of my work focuses on material exploration and hands-on experimentation. I enjoy working directly with materials to understand their properties, limitations, and expressive potential. Through this process, I aim to create designs that are functional while also carrying narrative and emotional depth. I am particularly drawn to projects that involve reinterpreting familiar objects and translating personal or cultural experiences into tangible design outcomes. Research plays an important role in my practice. I believe strong design emerges from a balance between conceptual thinking and physical experimentation. Whether working individually or collaboratively, I value process, iteration, and critical reflection as tools for growth. I am comfortable exploring abstract ideas and gradually refining them into clear, resolved forms. As a upcoming designer, I am curious, observant, and open to learning. I see each project as an opportunity to expand my perspective and develop a more thoughtful design language. Through my work, I aim to create designs that are grounded, sensitive, and meaningful, while continuing to evolve my understanding of design as a tool for human connection.
