Asif Asharaf
Bengaluru, India Available for select work

I design things that have to work — and help others get better at it.

Ten years of product design and one corner of the internet that's finally mine. Currently mentoring designers earlier in their careers and looking for deep, considered briefs.

What I Do

Product design

End-to-end product work — from research and strategy through to UI, systems, and shipping. I'm most useful when problems are gnarly and stakes are real.

Design systems

Building component libraries, tokens, and the documentation around them so design and engineering can move at the same pace without arguing.

Mentorship

Working with designers earlier in their careers — sharpening problem-solving, portfolio reviews, and the kind of feedback you wish your first manager had given you.

On Constraints

Why I've stopped thinking of limitations as problems to solve.
