Hey, I'm Augustin
Dinakar Raj
Senior Graphic Designer based in Chennai, twelve years in the field and still happiest with a blank artboard. I build brands for IT firms, builders and travel companies across India, Australia and the UAE.
About me
Design that earns its
place in the business
I've spent most of my career inside IT and services companies, where design sits next to sales and engineering and has to pull its weight. I've led a team of five designers, owned brand management end to end, and carried work from requirement gathering through wireframes and UI to final production files.
The work runs from a logo and its guidelines to the brochure on the trade-show table and the website behind it — always aiming at one coherent brand, executed properly.
