About Me
Hello there! I am Sarath. A designer, traveller and photography enthusiast, born and raised in Kochi, India. I moved to Bangalore in 2004 to learn and explore the world of design and advertising. This stint inspired me greatly, and I learnt a lot through books, moto-touring, teachers, friends, colleagues. But to be honest, I learnt the most from the cities that I lived in and travelled to. I love capturing the landscape, and architecture of the places that I visit, and also enjoy exploring the culture and the varied cuisines of the land. Currently, I'm in the midst of setting up a creative agency. This, to me, is the best way to collaborate with other creative minds and expand my own creative horizons. As a designer and as an Art Director I have, over the years, worked for several reputed national and international brands. From conceptualizing, designing, and prototyping profits to curating brand experiences, I have worked across several projects including ad campaigns, websites, user interfaces, brand and visual identity guidelines, apps, product packaging, concept designs, and mentoring talent. As an Art Director, I have taken on increasing levels of responsibility and have proven success in designing and managing campaigns that built engaging and enduring relationships with a diverse set of audiences. • 12 + years experience in design and advertising • 8 + years experience as Art Director • Proven capability to lead and manage cross-functional teams and deliver work on time • Reliable and excellent creative and design sensibilities, ability to analyse latest trends and data into actionable ideas and insights • Experience in designing for multi-disciplinary industries including food and beverages, automobile, industrial tools, travel and service, web-portals, film, etc.
