Building products, one step at a time.
I design serious digital products that still feel human, sharp, and commercially alive. Most recently across Razorpay, udaan, smallcase, Pagarbook, and Cuemath.
Same content, reinterpreted as a quieter editorial portfolio.
Scroll inI’m Abhishek Raj, and I love building products. I enjoy bringing ideas to life and driving them to execution.
Research I did across product journeys, questions, and friction points.
Detailed research documents, working notes, and deeper framing that helped sharpen product direction beyond the surface layer.

I also draw letters. R2 and R3 are custom type families built for cleaner interfaces and sharper display rhythm.
A personal type system shaped into specimen micro-sites with weights, character sets, interface scales, and a more precise rhythm.
R2
A type family designed for product surfaces that need utility, personality, and stronger hierarchy without losing calm.
Open specimen siteR3
A more fluid sibling built for warmer interfaces, lighter rhythm, and calmer editorial surfaces without losing structure.
Open specimen siteWhat I write when product decisions need sharper language.
