Your project.
Let's talkOutside client work, I design and build small products: for a trip, for my neighbourhood, for my Mac. It's where I try the tools and techniques I then bring to teams.
The roadbook of a trip with friends: the map of the stops, the day-by-day itinerary, lodgings, weather and shared expenses, synced live between travellers. It started for one trip and became an app to create others: AI drafts the trip from a few lines, you adjust it by talking to it, and a native iOS version followed.
The neighbourhood shop's loyalty card, without the cardboard: customers scan the QR code or NFC tag on the counter, the shop confirms the stamp, and the reward unlocks once the card is full. On the shop's side, today's dashboard, customer records, full cards to follow up and targeted notifications.
Born from my daily use of AI: the Mac's notch becomes Claude's dashboard. The mascot shows at a glance whether it's working, waiting for my go-ahead or done, I approve its requests from the notch or the keyboard, and I can see where my session stands. Nothing leaves the Mac.
The MacBook notch turned into a Dynamic Island: the music playing with its cover, a progress bar tinted with its colour, the controls, and a camera preview before a call. An exercise in interface detail, down to the pixel and the animation.
MacBook Pro screens can go much brighter, but macOS keeps that for HDR content. Vif unlocks it from the menu bar, steadily and without flicker, and shows the brightness reached in nits.
A party game: everyone puts a finger on the screen, a five-second countdown builds the tension (pulsing screen, haptics), then one finger is drawn and buys the next round. Illustrated hands slide away as players join.
Running to conquer your city: loop around a neighbourhood to take control of it, steal other runners' zones, and every zone has its own podium. A concept designed end to end, from the map of zones to live run tracking.
What if ChatGPT had MSN’s interface? Wizz plays on nostalgia and the chatbot wave: you chat with fake AI friends, each with its own personality, mostly the trolling kind, who answer with the slang of 2006 and can’t stand being sent a wizz. Contact list and personal messages included.
My freelance missions, through 175studio: product design, design systems and custom web and mobile app development, for Exoteach, Mango3D, Poupette and Fuko. Still working alongside Artur'in's product team: mobile app, Self'in, internal tools.
Led UX/UI design of web and mobile interfaces (CRM, CMS) in a multi-sector B2B context. Three successive design systems, in step with the technical migrations (Angular, Vue, then React with shadcn), and a team of five designers to lead. User research, prototyping, A/B testing and Design Thinking workshops.
Company's visual identity and website, UX/UI for the client back office, the Sticker Picker mobile app and internal tools. UX for Messenger chatbots, Facebook conversational extensions and custom interfaces for platform clients.
Website design and conception for a range of clients — independents, small businesses and early-stage structures. Art direction, layout and integration, with a strong focus on visual identity and usability.
Graphic design, signage and visual communication materials.
My first job, and the agency's youngest employee. Graphic design and animations for SFR, Canal+ and other big accounts. Another era, with no Figma and no cloud: most of the files got lost along the way.
Working with Romain is a guarantee of quality. He understands both the business and the technical stakes, and can unblock complex UX problems.
Romain translated Poupette's universe into digital without ever betraying the brand. Sharp eye, quick execution, and real product sense.
7 years of collaboration, from SkipTax to Exoteach. Romain turns complex problems into clear interfaces that convert.
Romain set up a solid design system in record time, and his prototypes were complete enough that we used them directly in-house.
A product to scope, a rebuild, an exploration sprint, or just want to chat about product — drop me a line. I reply within 24h on weekdays and am always up for a no-strings first call.
