I find the real problem behind the brief, then design the clear, accessible fix.

From founding studios to designing products and public services.

I’m Vikas Verma, Vik for short. Before co-founding Syntaxa Studio (opens in a new tab), I spent four years as a Senior Interaction Designer at Shelter, designing donation, fundraising and careers journeys, mentoring UX designers and helping shape its design system. Today, I lead UX and UI design at Syntaxa, the studio I co-founded with Ana, where we combine design and development to turn ideas into polished, accessible digital products.

Earlier in my career, I ran a creative studio for almost seven years, leading a small team across branding, research and web design. From winning briefs and managing projects to building lasting client relationships, that experience shaped my commercial mindset and end-to-end approach to design. I do my best work in collaborative teams focused on making digital experiences work better for the people who use them.
