HOW I WORK • WHAT I MAKE •

Research-driven design for products, interfaces and the web. One process, three disciplines, zero guesswork.

Selected Work

Three projects, one way of thinking

From research

From research to real products

to real products

Services

Product Design

Physical products taken from research to technical documentation. User studies, sketching, CAD, prototyping, materials and manufacturing methods, all the way to exploded views a factory can read.

Research

CAD & rendering

Prototyping

Technical drawings

UI/UX Design

Interfaces built on evidence instead of taste. Interviews, benchmarks and personas shape the architecture, then wireframes grow into design systems and tested, developer-ready screens.

User research

Information architecture

Design systems

Prototypes

Web Design

Websites that carry a brand the way a product carries its function. Clear structure, honest copy, deliberate motion and layouts that hold up from a phone to a wide screen.

Landing pages

Portfolios

E-commerce

Motion

Process

The same six steps, whatever the medium

A train, an emergency device and a hiking app have nothing in common except how they were designed. Every project here went through the same loop.

01

Discover

Research the users, the market and the context before drawing anything.

02

Define

Turn findings into problems, insights and a clear design opportunity.

03

Develop

Concepts, sketches, information architecture and wireframes, in volume.

04

Refine

Prototype, test, iterate. Engineering and visual refinement together.

05

Deliver

The final product, interface or website, with documentation that holds up.

06

Evaluate

Reflect on impact and note what the next version should do better.

About

Who I am

Who I am

I am Usman, a designer fueled by creativity, critical thinking and unwavering resilience. I trained as an industrial designer at ODTU in Ankara, and I am now completing an MFA in interior architecture at Bilkent.


The discipline matters less to me than the process. Whether the outcome is a metro train, an emergency mesh device or a campus hiking app, the work starts with understanding the problem deeply and ends with a solution I can defend line by line. My other passions sit close by: entrepreneurship, sustainability and technology.
