Biography: Liou Yamane

I am an user experience designer.

This means that I get bugged on a daily basis about ill-designed appliances, elevators, ticket machines and what not. This means I think you can't separate form from function. This means I campaign against unfounded assumptions about how you think people will make use of your product and service and how these will benefit them. This means that even if I am not a skilful drawer, I absolutely love sketching. Finally, this means I want to help you make something that truly creates value for people.
