Laura du Plessis

UX/UI & Graphic Designer

Europe · Remote · Open to hybrid

My experience in the digital design space spans both independent and in-agency projects, working across responsive web design and development, brand identity systems and digital campaigns. I combine design fundamentals with an AI-assisted creative approach, using generative tools to accelerate ideation, develop visual concepts and explore new creative directions. I approach design with empathy and curiosity by honing in on my ability to observe, and by doing so: becoming receptive to the information needed for design problem solving.
