About me

Hello! I'm Shikha Dayal, a strategic thinker, sustainability advocate, and design innovator dedicated to creating user-centered solutions that balance human needs with environmental responsibility. I firmly believe that impactful and meaningful design stems from a deep understanding of real-world challenges and a commitment to positive change.

With a multidisciplinary background spanning design strategy, business consulting, and sustainability, I specialize in translating research insights into actionable strategies. My expertise extends across home decor, space design, sustainable packaging, branding, and creative facilitation, allowing me to craft holistic, forward-thinking solutions. My work with organizations like Perpetual, the City of Savannah, and Xcreative Spaces has empowered communities, businesses, and individuals to adopt innovative and sustainable practices.

My Approach

I integrate systems thinking, behavioral research, and strategic planning to develop designs that drive impact. My work focuses on embedding sustainability into business operations, facilitating collaboration, and guiding organizations through change management. Whether it's implementing reusable systems, enhancing brand positioning through workshops, or developing sustainable packaging solutions, I thrive on solving complex problems with creativity and research-driven insights.

Beyond Design

When I'm not immersed in my work, you'll find me indulging in my passions for food, travel, storytelling, and environmental advocacy. I love exploring new cuisines, getting lost in a good book, watching engaging films, and spending time in nature. My commitment to social impact extends beyond my professional work—I’ve been actively involved in initiatives like Robin Hood Army Pune and SCAD Serve, and I dream of one day creating a safe haven for animals.

I’m always eager to connect with like-minded change-makers, collaborate on projects that foster sustainability, and design a future that works for both people and the planet. Let’s build something meaningful together!
