Ritu

Ritu means season in Hindi. I chose the name in September 2026.

It’s a system for stability samples at a pharma company. In a stability study, drug samples sit in controlled chambers for a long time, pulled out on a schedule for testing. Ritu holds the answers: which sample is in which chamber, when it was pulled, which tests ran, and how many remain. Sample custody and the pull calendar, in one place.

I imagined it as a house of controlled seasons. Each real chamber is a room. The house is drawn only from rooms that actually exist, for each unit. Nothing invented, nothing added. The season in the art is a quiet setting; it never implies chamber conditions. The headline tells you the day’s work: “Two pulls need you today.”

The north star I kept returning to was the cool shade of a courtyard at the hour of a pull, every sample exactly where you left it.

Ritu builds on the QR inventory foundation from a sibling app I made, but carries its own identity. The first proof it has to pass: one chamber type, one product family, where parking a sample, pulling it, and the remaining count are all true.

I started in September 2026, documentation first. The spec is ready. The visual direction is in review before it’s built.
