Good design doesn't
live only on screens.

I think in flows, build in code, and obsess over how things feel to use — whether that's a checkout screen or an evening someone will remember.

Design explorations

Thinking out loud.

Shorter, scrappier, and sometimes more honest than a full case study.

Field Notes

Design lives in the
details you notice
every day.

Tablescapes, terracotta pots, the way a garland falls. I collect moments of considered design — physical and digital — and notice what they share with the products I build.

About

Parul Tater.
Designer who builds,
builder who designs.

I spent eight years at the intersection of design and engineering — as a frontend developer who cared about how things felt to use, and as a UX developer who could implement what she designed. At Cloudera and Alectio, I owned work end to end: from design discussions through to shipping and validation.

I'm returning to tech with a clearer sense of what I want: design products that are well thought through and well built. I learn by making things real.
