Software designer, founder, and amateur astronaut.

I’m Bar, a software designer and entrepreneur based in New York City. I’m the founder and CEO of Planetaria, where we develop technologies that empower regular people to explore space on their own terms.

Crafting a design system for a multiplanetary future

Most companies try to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to visual design, but for Planetaria we needed to create a brand that would still inspire us 100 years from now when humanity has spread across our entire solar system.
