Creative Interfaces Lab

Daniel Pushparaj

Hey, I’m Daniel! I’m a digital product designer currently pursuing my Master’s in XR Design at IIT Jodhpur, and I care deeply about one thing: crafting experiences that feel as good as they look. For me, great design isn’t just visual polish, it’s about how an experience makes someone feel, behave, and heal.

At CI Lab, I got to work on something genuinely meaningful, a VR and Mixed Reality therapy tool for university students dealing with public speaking anxiety. I designed the full user workflow, built and tested the product across three variants (traditional VR, AI-enhanced VR, and MR), and developed a rigorous evaluation framework using validated psychological and UX tools. It’s the kind of project that reminds you why immersive tech, when thoughtfully designed, can actually change people’s lives.
