Thoughts from my colleagues

“Work with Chris if you’d like to get great results that shine for your stakeholders and your users - you’ll almost certainly learn something new about design in the process too.”

James Lang

UX Director, Google

“Chris is committed to combining flair, and precision with evidence based user centred design. These qualities have allowed him to exhibit strong, sustainable design leadership.”

Mark Hicks

Strategy Director, cxpartners

“Chris is one of the most talented designers I’ve worked with. He has both a creative and business outlook so knows how to design websites and apps that perform and delight.”

Joe Leech

Keynote Speaker & VC Coach

“I had the pleasure of collaborating with Chris on website redesigns across several countries. He understood each market’s brand and needs, while always bringing a strong user-centred approach.”

Maxime Antoine-Moussiaux

Product Manager, Proximus

About AI and design

I see AI as a way to make the design process more connected.

It shortens the distance between an idea, a prototype, a test and something a developer can actually build from. The right people can be involved earlier, decisions can be made with more context, and the work can keep moving while learning happens.

AI does not replace judgement or craft. It reduces the friction around them, so better decisions can happen sooner.

I use AI to..

Organise research and data

Challenge assumptions

Streamline the design process

Connect design systems to live code

Bring design and prototyping tools closer together

Speed up the turnaround time of user testing

Rapidly prototype on-brand user experiences

Accelerate the rate of learning

Give developers better artifacts to build from

Document the stories behind our decisions

Reduce ambiguity

I don’t use AI to..

Decide what matters

Replace user evidence

Eliminate the opportunity to follow a hunch

Shortcut critical thinking

Outsource taste or judgement

Measure success

Replace the value of deep experience

Give me objective opinion

Critique design work

Remove responsibility from the designer

Choose what is right for the user or the business
