PRODUCT DESIGN

Experience:

As a seasoned product designer and founder of Paridaez, I bring a comprehensive skill set that spans the entire product lifecycle. My expertise encompasses R&D, product development, design, sourcing, and overseeing manufacturing, complemented by strong forecasting abilities. I excel in creating innovative modular and multipurpose products that seamlessly blend form with function and style with utility. My focus with Paridaez is modular and multi-purpose apparel, which enables a person to seamlessly transition from any setting. As a result, they save time, space, and never miss out on experiences. These design principles can be applied across various industries to create better, more efficient products and processes. I also have experience designing accessories, home goods, wellness, beauty products and fixtures.

Modular + Multi-Purpose

1. Modular = pieces that transform into completely different
articles of clothing.
2. Multi-purpose = clothing that is transitional for any setting.

I cater to the diverse needs of a dynamic lifestyle. The styles are interchangeable and the collection buildable. This approach addresses market demands for versatility and sustainablity. By emphasizing the concept of a capsule wardrobe, I create products that offer long-term value and adaptability, showcasing my ability to anticipate the evolving consumer needs when navigating through our modern day life.
