I assist companies with design, development and maintenance of digital products. This is how I do it.
You can't build a great product unless you know your audience. A project should never start without doing proper research.
What are the user needs?
What are the business goals?
Which technology can we use?
It’s in the intersection of these the real business is located. I’m able to locate that intersection.
With insight from the strategy, the brand, the users and the content I’m designing for, I explore various means and choose a direction for the design process. A great concept responds not only to discoveries in the analysis, but also contains elements of innovation. I can help with that.
In my opinion, a digital design process without deep code understanding, lead to poor, expensive and not very user-friendly solutions.
Sketches alone can never cover all the complex interactions of a digital product.
With design tools such as Figma, front-end code, or just pen and paper (usually a combination of the three), I bring concepts to life, and test them on real users throughout the design process. I guess that's what they call prototyping.
Digital products may be delivered, but they are never complete. To make a product stand out, I believe you have to continuously iterate on it by testing the product on real users, track the usage and gather customer feedback. Try. Fail. Do it again.
But let's face it. Great work won't generate great results if you do all the work on your own. The greatest digital products are built by talented people working together in interdisciplinary teams.
I believe in teamwork – not a one man show.
