AI?
AI as a design partner
AI is integrated across Anaïs' design process; it isn't a shortcut, it's how she works faster, test wider, and focus deeper on her taste.
"It's me and my AI stack, we come as a pair."
I’m Anaïs,
a Product Designer working across UX, interaction and digital experiences.
I like turning complicated systems into things that feel simple, considered and human. My work moves between product thinking, research, prototyping and visual design; from mapping large service ecosystems to obsessing over the interaction, copy or transition that makes an experience feel right.
My experience
Most recently, I worked at Valtech in Singapore, contributing to the end-to-end redesign of a national telecommunications platform used by millions of customers. Before that, I designed for TomTom in Amsterdam and Asia Media Studio in Bangkok, working across global web platforms, design systems and digital products for clients across different industries.
My background is slightly unconventional. Before design, I studied Political Science at the University of Amsterdam, where I spent a lot of time researching systems, behaviour and the ways technology interacts with society. I later completed a Master’s in UX Design in Barcelona, graduating with a 9.1/10. That combination still influences how I work today: zooming out to understand the system, then zooming all the way back in to the person using it.
Having studied and worked across Singapore, Bangkok, Amsterdam and Barcelona, I’ve learned to design with different cultures, behaviours and contexts in mind. I’m Thai-French, and that mix of perspectives has shaped the way I approach design: I tend to question assumptions quickly, adapt easily, and pay attention to how the same experience can be understood very differently by different people.
A bit more
Lately, I’ve been interested in:
how AI changes the way designers prototype and build
digital products that feel less generic and more culturally specific
designing complex services without making them feel complex
the increasingly blurry line between designer and developer
playful interfaces, interaction and the weird little corners of the internet
Outside of client and product work, I’m usually making something; a website, an interface experiment, a graphic, or a project that probably started because I wondered, “could this exist?”
