Dharam Lokhandwala
I am a multidisciplinary designer who loves to build, experiment and tell stories about it.
Currently, I am building Floop and am a Founder in Residence at IU Innovates.
Before that, I was a UX Designer at Indiana University (Go Hoosiers!) and a founding designer at an XR startup in Bengaluru (India).
I am a huge fan of speculative design, design theories, design philosophies, self-reflections, psychology, behaviourism and etymology.
