.hello
Hi, my name is Paul O'Brien but my friends call me POB and I have had the privilege of working as a designer for over a decade, honing my expertise in interior architecture and physical product design. Now, I am thrilled to embark on a new chapter, leveraging my knowledge and curiosity to design digital products.
To me, design is a journey of unraveling the underlying challenges faced by users and crafting effective solutions. In my work, I bring a sense of inquisitiveness, a meticulous eye for detail, and an unwavering passion for experimentation (fueled by copious amounts of caffeine and sugar).
Drawing from my experience in both digital products and physical spaces, I possess a diverse skill set that enables me to create designs that not only showcase outstanding aesthetics but also deliver a seamless user experience. I am excited to bring this multifaceted approach to the table, delivering designs that blend beauty and usability.
