Design Quest isn’t just a community it’s a journey for every designer to connect, create, and inspire.
Through meetups, collaborations, and knowledge sharing, we bring together designers to learn, grow, and build a strong, supportive community in Mangalore.
It’s a space to connect, collaborate, and grow through shared knowledge. As the first-ever design community in Mangalore, we focus on UI/UX design, visual design, & related domains while warmly welcoming creatives & design enthusiast from all branches of design whether you’re in Mangalore or anywhere else.
Through meetups, members exchange ideas, sharpen their skills, and inspire one another. Design Quest is more than networking, it’s about building a strong, supportive community where designers can thrive together.
It all began on March 11, 2023, when a small group of passionate designers came together for the first Design Quest. With keynotes, workshops, panels, and networking. What started as a circle of curious minds soon became the spark that set the Design Quest movement in motion.
With each edition, Design Quest grew stronger. Workshops and panel discussions expanded, attracting more designers and industry professionals. From the small group of designers who started it all, the community steadily grew, each session adding new insights, networking opportunities, shaping Design Quest into a thriving space for learning, collaboration, and shared creativity.
At the heart of Design Quest are its visionaries: Aravinth Sivasamboo, CEO and Asha Aravinth, Managing Director at Bixbytes Solutions. Their shared passion for design and community sparked an idea to create a platform where designers could learn, connect, and inspire one another. That spark became the foundation for what is now Design Quest.
Design Quest is brought to life by Cocogrid, a design agency committed to nurturing creativity and building spaces where designers can learn, share, and grow together. With a vision to give back to the community, Cocogrid organizes events, workshops, and initiatives that spark meaningful conversations and inspire future-ready design practices.
Behind every successful Design Quest is a dedicated core committee - a team of passionate individuals committed to bringing every idea to life. From planning events to managing workshops, their dedication ensures each session delivers value, shaping memorable experiences and fostering a thriving, engaged design community.
