K.I.S.S.

People used to call me a difficult customer because I always looked for ways to improve the functionality of a product, now they call me a product designer.

I see problems as opportunities.

 

Hi, I’m Marielle, an ethical designer and mentor at Monash University, Faculty of Information Technology. I believe everyone should be able to make their own choices without being manipulated.

I love to keep it simple & sexy.
