๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ  Our Story

India's home for design portfolios.

Folios.in was built because India's design talent deserved a platform of its own โ€” not a filtered version of a global product, but a home built for Indian designers, Indian companies, and the Indian design community.

Built for designers who are building India.

Indian designers have always been world-class. But for too long, the platforms they used were built for someone else โ€” someone in San Francisco, London, or New York.

Folios.in exists to change that. We built a platform that understands โ‚น instead of $, Bangalore instead of Bay Area, and a design industry that's growing faster than anywhere else on earth.

From fresh graduates in Pune to principal designers in Bangalore โ€” every Indian designer deserves a place to be seen, hired, and celebrated.
