How I can help

Product design & strategy

I join your team and take over design from start to finish: research, UX strategy, prototypes, design systems and user testing. It works for a product that needs to get better, a platform that needs to scale, or an idea that doesn't exist yet.

Discuss a design project

From idea to finished product

Need a new app, a better website or a completely new digital product? You get design and development from one person, from the first sketch to launch. No handoff, nothing lost between design and code.

Discuss a product idea

Work that speaks for itself

Every project is different, from consumer apps to complex B2B platforms. What they share: each one had to achieve something, whether winning a pitch, growing sales or getting a board to say yes. Selected work for Consorsbank, easyCredit, SAP Signavio, Volkswagen and more.

How we work together

From the first call to launch: you always know where your project stands and what happens next.

  1. Intro call

    In 20 minutes we talk through your project, your goals and your timeline.

  2. Estimate and proposal

    You get my assessment of scope, approach and effort, plus a proposal. So you know where you stand before anything starts.

  3. Design and build

    I work in short steps and show you where things stand at regular intervals. You weigh in early, not just at the end.

  4. Launch and beyond

    I see the launch through and stay available for improvements and support if you want.

Products I Built

Besides client work, I build products of my own, on my own: idea, design, code and launch.

Portrait of Pascal Heynol

Behind the work

I'm Pascal Heynol. For over 15 years, I've designed digital products, and I build many of them myself. That means what you see in the design is what goes live. Consumer apps, desktop software, control room interfaces, interactive installations: the bar stays the same. A product that works, that people enjoy using, and that moves your business forward.

Master of Science in Human-Computer Interaction. Grounded in design, computer science, and psychology.

Broad product range: Consumer apps, B2B platforms, technical control systems, and interactive installations. For Fortune 500s, growth-stage startups, and everything in between.
