Intro

Neethi is an illustrator, muralist and surface pattern designer based out of Bangalore, India. She has illustrated for companies like Google, Instagram, WeWork, NPR, Whatsapp and Mahindra, amongst others, and is currently a Creative Partner at studio How About That!

Bright, fantastical, pattern-infused still life and exaggerated interior scenes are a recurring theme in her work. She aims to captivate and transport her audience into these worlds.

Neethi proudly carries a mononymous name, given by her father as a symbol of equality in representation as well as independence from gender norms.

In today's episode, we discuss her life, designing for spaces, the nuances of creating mural art, illustration design, and much more.
