About US
Empowering Creativity Through Human-Centered Design
DNA Design Academy began with a fascination for human behaviour and its potential (mentally, physically, and socially) to shape how individuals and groups respond to internal and external stimuli.
Over the years, DNA Design Academy has evolved into a hub for aspiring designers and professionals seeking to elevate their skills. We blend science, psychology, and creativity to teach concepts that unlock transformative solutions in spaces, products, and interactions. Whether it’s through colour, form, or spatial planning, our courses aim to cultivate a deep awareness of how thoughtful design shapes lives.
At DNA Design Academy, we believe design is more than aesthetics—it’s a tool for connection, empowerment, and purpose. Our community of learners thrives on curiosity and innovation, fueled by a desire to make meaningful changes in the world. Through carefully crafted courses, mentorship, and hands-on learning, we equip individuals to reimagine possibilities and design for impact.
Join us and experience the power of behavioural design to elevate human potential.
