RACHANA SHAH

As a graphic designer I am passionate about harnessing the rich artistic background of my Indian heritage, as well as the cultural colour of the lands in which I have lived and travelled... I grew up in Mumbai, where I was influenced by the vibrant pace of life, and by the tropical seasons on the margins of the Arabian Sea. After graduating from The Cathedral School, I attended The Rhode Island School of Design, in Providence, RI. It was there that I was encouraged to experiment with all forms of design, and to develop my own artistic style... After graduation, I spent a year in New York, working for Scholastic Inc., after which I relocated to London. I lived there for nine years, where I was involved with the design of non-fiction illustrated books at Dorling Kindersley.
