Work

A shared-control concept for autonomous driving: tangible controls and a graphic interface let every passenger fine-tune the car’s driving style (within a range the driver sets) and feel each other’s preferences through haptic feedback.

Master Thesis Project · Mercedes-Benz Design, Sindelfingen · 2024–25 · Concept & interaction design

A configurator that lets learning-platform owners build their own AI agents and place them where members get stuck: three very different audiences, one setup that never looks like a settings panel.

Professional project · LearningSuite, Graz · 2025–26 · Product UX/UI

An ergonomic control unit for tugboat captains operating azimuth thrusters: clearer directional feedback, unambiguous throttle, less strain across long shifts.

Bachelor Thesis Project · Smart-Ship B.V. · 2021 · Research, ergonomics & product design

An iOS outfit diary that freezes each day’s weather onto what you wore, then hands back the looks that worked in weather like today’s. Designed and directed end to end; built with an AI coding assistant and now in beta on TestFlight.

Independent project · 2026 · Design & direction · iOS / SwiftUI

A research-through-design study on whether playing together changes how people bin their litter: one trashcan running two game modes, sixteen participants, and a result that split along the lines the theory cares about.

Master Project · TU Eindhoven · 2023 · Research through design

A remote control for the smart home without smartphone or app: a twistable, doorknob-shaped controller tracked by computer vision, so the interface stays physical and shared.

Master Project · TU Eindhoven · 2023–24 · Concept, prototyping & research

A responsive physical interface for heating, light and ambience at home, exploring feed-forward and feedback you can feel before you act.

Master Group Project · TU Eindhoven · 2024 · Rich interaction & prototyping

A shallow-water diving system fed by surface air instead of compressed-air tanks, making diving more accessible and easier to understand. Open-water tested in Mallorca, 2024; still in development.

Independent project · Ongoing since 2021 · System design & engineering

A version of me visitors can question directly: held to a knowledge base I wrote by hand, honest about being artificial, and honest about how it was made. My concept, my rules and limits, built with an AI coding assistant.
