Senior Designer
Aka Visual Worldbuilder
ABOUT ROOFTOP
Rooftop is the world's first creative multiverse. We started by learning directly from Indian artists whose crafts were shaped by generations of practice. Now we bring global artists, creative practices, and curious learners into one shared universe a marketplace, a school, and a cultural archive all at once.
Everything we put out is a reflection of that. The visual language has to hold craft and commerce in the same frame. We're not a lifestyle brand. We're not a museum. We're something new.
