UX and.......

Welcome to my “ Cabinet of Curiosities” of works. I believe in looking at UX Design as a methodology that can be applied to every problem. I love systems, interactions, working with physical materials, behavior observation and analysis which is why I make what I make and what led me down this career path. My work encompasses various topics because I wanted to use the knowledge I had of recording human behavior and experience to tell bigger stories regarding the human condition. By combining human centric design with art, theory and technology to create immersive experiences like working with artificial intelligence, creative computing and robotics while combining it with classical artistic elements like sculpture or sewing to transform user research into a meaningful experience.

As a UX designer, I created web design concepts, wireframes, IAs, UI style systems, and custom widgets. My work focused on responsive design and e-commerce user flows, ensuring seamless and intuitive experiences.

Developed in collaboration with RCA and Meta Reality Labs, this immersive VR/AI installation explores a surreal, malfunctioning metaverse trying to decode human wants and values. Exhibited in Seoul, Dutch Design Week, and London, the experience critiques the commodification and automation of human desire—inviting users to reflect on the gap between what we want, what we think we want, and what machines think we want.

As part of my specialization at RCA, I explored the emotional and communicative potential of touch through projects using silicone textures, haptic feedback, and touch sensors. My work investigates how tactile experiences can enhance digital interactions and deepen human connection beyond the visual.
