Project Description

Project Description

Pehel empowers Indian students to pursue design educational opportunities abroad through mentorship and resources, which will help expose them to new perspectives and showcase their talents globally.


A laptop screen displays a website for Pehel, a mentorship program for students. The website features a banner stating "OUR MENTORS HAVE HELPED OVER 500 STUDENTS." Sections include "Home," "About," "Jobs," "People," "Events," "Videos," and "Pages people also viewed." A photo of a woman with curly hair is positioned to the left of the laptop screen. The laptop itself is a MacBook.



A desktop computer screen displays the PEHL website, featuring a banner with the headline “THE WORLD IS YOUR CANVAS.” Below it, a smaller image shows a woman in a pink shirt and text reading “MEET NATASHA, A SKILLED UX DESIGNER WHO GRADUATED FROM VISUAL ARTS IN 2021.” A laptop screen shows a sign-up form, while a smaller desktop screen displays a search bar and a “GO” button. A smaller mobile screen shows a “DISCOVER DESIGN SCHOOLS” section.



A computer screen displays a Pehel application interface. The screen shows sections for Applications in Progress, Upcoming 1:1 Meetings, and Saved/Applications. Application progress includes Pratit (15th December 2023), SUNYC (25th January 2024), and Pratit (30th December 2023). Meetings are scheduled for October 28, 2022. Saved applications include Savannah College of Art and Design and The University of the Arts.



Two hands hold a red smartphone displaying the Pehel app. The screen shows various icons and text, including “Pehel,” “Instagram,” “Instagram Stories,” “Instagram Direct,” “Instagram Feed,” “Instagram Profile,” “Instagram Post,” “Instagram Stories,” and “Pehel.” The time displayed is 12:40. The background is blurred and gray.



A smartphone displays a social media post from Pehlehconnect, titled “Posts,” featuring a woman holding a book. The post includes text: “13.15 likes,” “Pehlehconnect: A group of students in India who are pursuing their dreams,” and “Pehlehconnect: A group of students in India who are pursuing their dreams.” The post is part of a grid of colorful social media posts on a pink background.



A flyer titled "Mentoring Guide" displays key discussion topics including mentoring and support systems, student success, career development, and mentor-mentee relationships. The flyer features images of individuals and text outlining the guide's purpose and structure. The PEHEL logo is visible in the top right corner.



The image shows two pages from a design book or magazine, laid out on a pink background. The left page is titled "OVERVIEW" and features a white background with orange panels containing images of laptops, smartphones, and screenshots of website mockups. The text describes a platform for designers to present their work in an accessible and navigable way. The right page is titled "RESPONSIVE LAYOUT" and has a yellow-orange background with black text. It includes a photo of a family, a quote about mentors, and text discussing the platform’s features and benefits for designers.



A woman with long dark hair, wearing a white long-sleeved shirt, is seated at a white desk and looking at a laptop screen displaying the PEHEL website. The laptop is open and positioned in front of her. The background is a light purple or lavender color. To the right of the laptop, a black mesh pencil holder with pens is visible. The PEHEL logo is prominently displayed in the top right corner of the image.



Two women stand side by side against a bright blue background with pink and blue light streaks. The woman on the left wears a white t-shirt and large hoop earrings, her hands covering her mouth. The woman on the right wears a black sleeveless top with a cutout neckline and smiles at the camera. The PEHEL logo appears in the top right corner. Text at the bottom right reads “FOLLOW US: @pehel_instagram_link_icon_videos”.
