Hi, I am a graphic designer.
I solve design problems with research and empathy.

I am passionate about design research, human-centered design, and UX design. I love to explore the science of design, such as perception psychology, phenomenology, and visual communication.

How I work

 
  • Creation of the creative brief to understand the scope of the project and what is needed. This includes the company details, brand guidelines, target audience, defining potential problems the company is facing, the desired final product, timeline and budget, and lastly ideas and inspiration for the project.

  • Depending on the type of project, different subjects need to be researched. This could include looking at the designs of competitors and researching the target audience. First moodboards and design ideas are sketched from here.

  • Based on design thinking and similar processes. Different strategies can come into play here. For user experience, methods such as personas, focus groups, card sorting, user journey maps, or other can be part of this.

  • Prototypes and first designs are presented and tested. As the design process is iterative, previous steps can be repeated here. Feedback is included and the design proposals are discussed.

  • After the previous steps are completed, the design gets finalized and the files are prepared for handover. The project is finished.
