Hariprasad BDesign Engineer
I'm a product designer & engineer. I have a feel for what people need and a fluency with what machines can do.
I love solving problems, so many solutions living quietly in my GitHub and Vercel. A designer should understand business, technology, and human psychology to build solutions that hold up against all three. I'm a big proponent of Activity Centric Design — focus on what the user is trying to do, and design around that. It works better than user centric design, in my experience.
I started with still photography and core graphic design. Then a 2yr stint as an all-in-one designer at a Bengaluru startup Metastart, and now designing for a B2B enterprise at UnifyApps via ICD.
I have a keen taste, which is why I don't outsource thinking, only execution. That's where AI is good. Treat it as an implementation accelerator, not a replacement for a human.
A thinking exercise turning into a harness for coding agents in enterprise product design: what if the agent could only compose UI out of components that actually exist in the design system?
