About

Hello, I'm Ankit Dembla.

I'm an Art Director and Product Designer, currently heading design team at Radix (Directi), Mumbai. Previously, I ran an independent design studio, Bhindi, in Mumbai, India. Founded in 2013, Bhindi served over 50 clients in 9 countries. Along with managing the studio, I consulted for World Around Me, UK, as Head of Design for over 8 years.

My work ranges from creating informative and immersive Augmented Reality experiences to designing brand identities, marketing collaterals, and developing online e-commerce stores using Shopify and other low/no code tools.

Before starting Bhindi, I spent over 2 years leading a design team at Scarecrow, Mumbai, which was later acquired by M&C Saatchi, London. During my tenure at Scarecrow, my team won over 30 new clients, grew from 16 to 55 employees, and earned multiple "Agency of the Year" and other global awards.

Prior to that, I worked with McCann Erickson, in Mumbai as an Art Director for 2 years. At McCann, I handled clients such as L'Oréal, Maybelline, Nerolac Paints, Onida, Pears Soap, and Neo Sports.

In my spare time, I manage a calligraphy e-commerce business (founded with my wife), mentor fine artists/painters/calligraphers transitioning to the digital world, speak at colleges/events, craft leather goods, sell icons, and design stationary.

I have been fortunate enough to receive accolades throughout my career. Some of the notable ones that I am particularly proud of are listed below.
