About

A curiosity driven multidisciplinary creator & innovator working at the subtle compatibility and intersectionalities between science, design and technology. Constantly improving his knowledge and craft by blending a desire to drive social sustainability with his passion for design innovation in accessible, adaptable and intuitive ways.

Channi is a robust, affordable, and rapidly deployable water-based filtration system for capturing particulate matter emissions from solid fuel burning stoves. Outdoor grilling practices often lack proper air filtration systems, leading to harmful emissions in urban air. The absence of products tailored for emission capture from outdoor solid fuel stoves is a critical issue. The culmination of an extensive ethnographic co-design process, Channi is a novel outdoor air filtration device that guarantees an affordable panacea for the end user, with tangible impact to reduce air pollution in developing countries, exacerbated due to the widespread use of solid fuels for cooking.
