I'm Danut, a 32-year-old designer based in Strasbourg, France. With 10 years of hybrid/remote work experience in the design field. My areas of expertise include product design, design systems, and 0→1 products, where I bring innovative ideas to life.
I've always been drawn to products that feel clear, intentional, and cohesive — the kind where every interaction makes sense and nothing feels out of place. That's what I aim to create in my work.
Over the years, I've designed everything from mobile apps and websites to complex B2B/B2C applications and internal tools, helping teams turn fragmented or outdated experiences into simple, modern interfaces.
I enjoy the full arc of the process: understanding the problem, mapping the experience, shaping the interface, and refining the details until the product feels aligned and easy to use.
I work closely with cross-functional teams, adapting to the way they ship and ensuring design moves forward without slowing the roadmap or creating bottlenecks. Whether it's defining flows, building prototypes, or tightening a design system, I focus on clarity, consistency, and outcomes that make the product feel whole.
