Frequently Asked Questions
What do you offer?
I work across illustration, graphic design, and UX design, combining visual thinking with strategic intent.
My work includes:
- Visual identities & branding (logo, flyers, brochures, posters, social media templates)
- Illustration (editorial, commercial, artistic)
- UI/UX design for digital products (Web and mobile design assets, usability audits)
- Concept development & visual direction
The goal is not just to create something that looks good, but something that works — clearly, intentionally, and with purpose.
What makes your approach different?
I focus on reduction instead of excess.
In a landscape driven by attention and engagement metrics, I take a different stance:
- Clarity over noise
- Function over decoration
- Intention over trend
Design, to me, is not about adding more — but about removing what’s unnecessary.
What does UX design mean to you?
For me, UX design is not about maximizing screen time.
It’s about:
- Helping users reach their goal as quickly as possible
- Reducing friction and cognitive load
- Respecting people’s time and attention
I don’t believe that more interaction equals better experience.
A good user experience is one that is efficient, calm, and almost invisible.
“Can’t this all be done with AI now?”
Short answer: Partly — but not entirely.
AI is a powerful tool, and I use it where it makes sense.
Where AI works well:
- Early ideation and exploration
- Quick drafts and visual directions
- Generating variations
Where human expertise becomes essential:
- Understanding context and nuance
- Strategic thinking
- Building meaningful brand identities
- Making informed design decisions
- Creating consistant and editable graphics
- Protection of your personal data
- Taking responsibility for the outcome
Good design is not just output — it’s judgment, experience, and intention.
How does the collaboration process work?
The process is structured but flexible:
- Introduction & defining goals
- Research & concept development
- Design iterations & feedback
- Final execution & delivery
I value clear communication and a collaborative, transparent workflow.
Who do you work with?
I collaborate with:
- Companies and brands
- Start-ups
- Cultural and creative projects
- Individuals
I’m especially interested in projects that have a social, cultural, or environmental impact.
Do you offer special rates?
Yes.
I offer reduced rates for:
- Non-profit organizations
- Green start-ups
- Social impact initiatives
- Artists
What if my project doesn’t fall into those categories?
You can still be part of it — as a patron.
This means:
You pay the regular rate, and in doing so, enable a non-profit or social initiative of your choice to receive discounted conditions.
It’s a simple way to redistribute resources and support meaningful work.
I have another question!
Sure! Send me your question and I’ll come back to you with my answer.
