Ganpath Ramesh is a product designer working across tooling, small-batch manufacturing and consumer hardware — currently studying at the Hillier College of Architecture and Design, NJIT. The work below moves from early CAD and mold design through to finished, physical parts.
I design for the hand before the eye — objects earn their form from how they're held, how they wear, and how they fail gracefully. My work moves between sketch models, CMF studies and DFM reviews, with a particular interest in tooling: how a single mold or fixture can be designed to hold up across a real production run, not just a one-off prototype.
Most recently that's meant building and testing a 3D-printed, two-part mold from CAD through to finished casts — learning the tooling side of manufacturing firsthand rather than outsourcing it. I'm looking for opportunities where I can carry a product the whole way through, from concept to something that actually gets made.
