I work with product teams to design engaging and thoughtful digital experiences.
Over the past 16 years, I've designed impactful digital products for start-ups and multi-nationals, balancing user and business needs.
What I do
I deliver value in all phases of the product development process, combining my skills in digital strategy, senior stakeholder management, and user interface design.
I can help teams make smart product decisions with user centric insights and support you in navigating business problems as they arise .
- User research planning and execution
- Strategic insight synthesis
- Workshop creation and facilitation
- Roadmap prioritisation
Once insights are gathered and strategies are outlined, I deliver flows and detailed designs. Making insights and ideas tangible in a collaborative and iterative way, being creative and applying best practices.
- Wireframes for internal discussions
- Clickable prototypes for user testing
- Specced high-fidelity UI design ready for development
- Design system contribution and set-up
When the digital product is live, it's important to create a feedback loop with users to inform future improvements. I like to work closely together with product managers and engineers to ensure continuous learning.
- Running ongoing user research
- Inspire backlog planning and assist prioritisation
- User testing the live product or possible new versions of it
- Survey planning, design, and synthesis
My work
Here is a selection of products and experiences that I've designed.
I'm Chris Arteaga
I'm a product designer and digital strategist based in Brussels. During my career, I’ve been able to work across many areas of the design field, which I believe has given me a holistic approach to collaborating with others and the design work I deliver. The first part of my career was focussed on honing my design craft, followed by working in more strategic design roles, which helped me learn how to zoom out and look at the problem that needs to be solved before jumping in to define well-crafted and thoughtful solutions.
Outside of work you can find me dialing in fancy espresso beans, riding my bike around Brussels, and going on adventures with my partner.
