Subhash Tendle

Former Programme Director, CCC, MICA, Ahmedabad
Former Creative Director, FCB-Ulka, Mumbai

Utpal Pande, Principal Designer, Pandesign is an extremely talented designer. His design expertise is quite evident in the body of work presented in his portfolio, which showcases his innovative solutions with great aesthetic sense.

But that is just half of the story. Equally impressive are his teaching abilities. Utpal excels in simplifying complex concepts and nurturing talent. He fosters collaborative environments and exhibits strong leadership qualities. His creativity, attention to detail, and dedication consistently elevate outcomes.

Utpal worked with me as a faculty in MICA, therefore, I can say that the impact of his persona extends beyond design, positively influencing colleagues and students alike.

Rajan Nair

Copywriter & Creative Director, Omnivore Academy

I had, and continue to have, the pleasure of working with Utpal Pande of Pandesign, both as a client and as a colleague. As his client, he designed my book and my institute’s logo in a creative and practical manner, paying great attention to how it would be executed and applied in the real world. And I am a difficult client to please, considering that I am a creative director myself.

Utpal is a highly professional designer, and I salute his strong commitment to quality and ethics. He approaches design challenges as opportunities to solve problems in creative and innovative ways; but I assure you, he never does it just for the sake of being creative.

He is a very good listener, takes feedback positively, and translates it into effective solutions. I have never known him to compromise on the integrity of his work. Utpal also holds deadlines sacrosanct, which is crucial for us in the creative communication business, and all the while, he maintains high standards of precision.

I have witnessed Utpal in class—he’s excellent at breaking down complex concepts into simple, engaging lessons; and students love him for it. I hope this does not read like a recommendation for admission to a top-notch design college in the West, but every bit of it is true. Utpal gets 5 out of 5 stars from me, for sure!
