I design and build interfaces that feel inevitable.
Eight years turning complex problems into simple, considered products — for startups, agencies, and the occasional museum.
About
BioI'm Jordan, a designer-developer based in Lisbon, working with teams who care about craft as much as outcomes. My work sits at the intersection of visual design, front-end engineering, and product strategy — I like projects where those three things can't really be separated.
Before going independent, I led design at two early-stage startups and spent a few years at a branding studio, where I learned that good typography solves more problems than people expect. These days I take on a small number of client projects each year and spend the rest of my time building side projects and writing about design systems.
