SYSTEMS THINKING

I am Sukanto (spelled Sukanta 😂). Based in Bengaluru, India I am a multi-disciplinary designer currently working remotely with Thredd- A fintech company based out of UK.

Before Thredd I worked with Peak XV Partners (Consultant) Condenast Tech Labs & Accenture Song on multiple products from concept to delivery & have managed and built complex design systems.


I am curious, hustler and like to learn new things.I did my masters in Service Design from the prestigious London College of Communication last year which not only fuelled my knowledge of Systems Thinking but also allowed me to work on some complex projects with public Sector Organisations like Govt.Uk, Camden Council, Hunterian Musuem.

One of the most interesting aspect about being a designer is the aspect of problem solving. Over my career of 7+ years, I have been fortunate enough to work on complex projects, collaborating with cross functional teams spread across multiple geographies together with whom, I have built some of the unique products.


I have a strong pedigree in Visual Design, Research, Storytelling, Illustration, Data Visualization and Design Strategy. Learning and trying new things has always been my interets.


In my free time, one can find me painting, travelling and also doing gardening- a newly acquired hobby .
