Process

How I design digital products

Step 1

Discover

I gather information about the business goals and conduct user interviews to gain real insights into the users and their needs.

Step 2

Define

I analyze the user interviews by creating user personas. I define the user problems with problem statements.

Step 3

Ideate

To brainstorm ideas, I generally use sketching techniques and conduct a competitive audit to see other design solutions.

Step 4

Prototype

I start creating a site map to define information architecture. Then I wireframe digitally and create lo-fi prototypes for usability testing.

Step 5

Test

I turn observation from testing into insights. According to these key insights the product will be iterated and tested again.

Step 6

Hand off

I create mockups, prototypes, and design assets for handoff, and collaborate with developers throughout implementation.

Hey, I am Tuğçe

I am a passionate digital product designer, enjoying the process of creating intuitive, user-centered solutions that make people's lives easier.

I am a Product Designer based in Munich, with a passion for solving problems of any scale using design thinking.

Combining my expertise in both digital product design, UX/UI and architectural design over 7 years, I offer a distinctive perspective and a versatile skill set. My expertise lies in interaction design, design systems, and usability testing. Applying my architectural mindset, I create user-friendly interfaces by paying close attention to detail, conducting thoughtful user research, and solving complex design challenges with dedication.

As a designer, I enjoy sharing my knowledge and experiences with the design community. I write articles on Medium, mainly about design tools, collaboration, and remote work.
