My Core Design Values πŸ“Œ

and where they come from...

User-centered | Delightful | Empathetic

Straightforward

Have you ever looked at a TV remote and have NOΒ IDEA what to do with it?
‍
As a designer, I believe in straightforwardness.

I always seek to identify the confusion that can arise from complex designs at each stage through testings.

Delightful

Have you noticed the world's reduced vibrancy as neutral colors like black, white, and grey take over?

From fashion to brand logos, these shades conquered the world for their versatility and professional appeal.

As a designer, I embrace the power of delightful color palette. I use varied color to break the monotony and enliven our surroundings.

Empathetic

It is challenging to create a product that suits everyone, but empathy enables us to find a balance.

Empathy encourages me to be an active listener in user interviews, helps me to uncover user desires, and guides me to ask the WHY and HOW in the design process.

As a designer, I believe that empathy leads to problem-solving designs.
