Manufactured in Bangalore, assembled in Delhi, and exported to New York, Aradhana Avinash is a rising Junior at  the School of Visual Arts pursuing a BFA in Design with a focus in Interaction/ UIUX. 

Now that we’re done pretending I have a biographer, besides believing my blue light glasses actually work, I love cooking for my friends, always having a ruler on hand, to-do lists, deep questions, 70’s dad rock and my precious record player.

Terrain                Data Visualization / 2025
With a passion for data science, I was drawn to the idea that maps can reveal more than just direction — they can tell stories. After miles of walking the stretch from 59th Street to the tip of Manhattan I designed a newspaper of five maps that visualize this area through structure, heat, time, transit, and taste, using data as a lens to peel back what’s built, what’s moving, and what remains.












The visual language of this project is held together by a 5 color palettes I curated after testing; adjusting opacity, and layering textures. Each hue was chosen not just for contrast, but for how it interacts — how it fades, overlays, and sits against blank space.  As seen below I designed a custom belly band with the city grid.
