About

I'm André, a UX designer based in Cologne. My path started in graphic design; today I shape digital products where structure, language and interaction fit together.

I'm drawn to the places where a product gets complicated: many states, many roles, many exceptions. Good design there doesn't come from more interface, but from clearer decisions.

I work closely with research and engineering. A design isn't finished until it's built, tested and in real people's hands.
