About Me — Anwesha Sengupta

Hello Again!

Here’s a glimpse into my world, where stories ignite my imagination and fuel innovation.

It all started with my love for reading and passion for world-building games, igniting my creativity and paving the way for a journey into the realm of design and visualization.

Born and raised in diverse cities across India, and travelling with every chance I got, I nurtured a global perspective, immersing myself in different cultures through the lens of food, history, and architecture.

This multicultural upbringing has shaped my core values of celebrating diversity and fostering inclusiveness.

As I embarked on my career trajectory—from architecture to design research and strategy, from entrepreneur to pursuing MS in Strategic Design and Management at Parsons—the layers of my multifaceted perspective began to unfold.

Each step fueled my desire to make a meaningful impact and drive positive change in the world.

This brings us to my design (and life) philosophies :

I perceive the world as a giant interconnected system, setting the stage for my creative endeavors.

Seeking diverse perspectives, I navigate beyond biases and acknowledge multiple truths.

Embracing ambiguity, I navigate the unknown, by seeking out knowledge and transparency.

I embrace playfulness, curiosity, and boundless imagination, infusing each project with a sense of joy.

I strive for inclusivity, bringing together perspectives & experiences through empathetic conversations.

I understand the past, envision the future, and design in the present to create impact.

I constantly challenge assumptions and asking questions to approach projects with clarity.

In a world of excess, I believe in the power of minimalism to create meaningful experiences.

Within my ever growing methodologies toolkit lies a collection of powerful techniques and approaches. For every project, I carefully selected and curate a series of methodologies from this toolkit that suit it best.

Harnessing the synergy between work and life, I bring the skill of embracing ambiguity from my personal experiences to infuse creativity into my projects. Similarly, I harness the power of experimentation from my professional work to continuously evolve and grow in all aspects of my life.

Beyond work…

I am an explorer, passionate about travel, science fiction, movies and music. Have a peek at @_minimally_yours_ on Instagram, a passion project started during the pandemic.
