About Pierre

Je conçois des Design Systems pour servir l'originalité, pas pour la standardiser. Convaincu que l'accessibilité et la performance technique ne sont pas des excuses pour brider la créativité, je m'efforce de casser les codes des interfaces conventionnelles (SaaS, Dashboards)`

Mon objectif : réconcilier l'exigence industrielle du Design System avec une approche visuelle haut de gamme, en challengeant la technique pour que 'faisable' devienne 'originel et mémorable'.

    April 2025 - Today (1 year and 2 months)
    Montpellier, France
    For Weda, a subsidiary of the Vidal Group, I am involved in the project to modernize their solutions for healthcare professionals.

    The goal is to improve the user experience while ensuring long-term viability in the face of regulatory and AI challenges. I am responsible for the overall UI strategy, bringing a fresh perspective to the traditionally understated interfaces of medical products.

    My UI vision aims to reinvent the digital medical experience while meeting concrete business objectives. As my PM Aurélie aptly puts it with her inspiring phrase 'I am in 2030' - a perspective that pushes us to anticipate tomorrow's needs.

    APPROACH & PROCESS
    ↘ Creation of a Design System adapted to the medical sector and compatible with Angular.
    ↘ In-depth UI thinking to balance visual innovation and medical constraints.
    ↘ Integration of design as a strategic lever for performance and brand identity.
    ↘ Implementation of a Design Ops approach to structure processes and tools.
    ↘ UX/UI collaboration ensuring continuity between research and interface.
    ↘ Development of components meeting the needs of different medical profiles.

    OBJECTIVES
    ↘ Build a scalable Design System that goes beyond a simple UI Kit.
    ↘ Rethink the visual identity to strengthen user trust.
    ↘ Facilitate collaboration between Product, Development, and Business teams.

    LOGISTICS AND SUPPLY CHAIN
    February 2024 - Today (2 years and 4 months)
    Puteaux, France
    At Numspot, a strategic player in the French sovereign cloud, I work as a freelance Senior UI Designer & Design System Manager to lead the construction of their design system, in a context of agile and evolving product development.

    Alongside my UX Designer counterpart, I defined the overall UI vision for the product and designed a tailor-made design system, conceived from the outset to be modular, scalable, and maintainable despite numerous graphic direction changes. The approach adopted was resolutely iterative, allowing us to progress in functional stages while absorbing the product and technical constraints of the moment.

    APPROACH & PROCESS
    ↘ Analysis of the existing situation and scoping of Design/Dev needs.
    ↘ Atomic design of components (Atomic Design), from fundamental elements to templates.
    ↘ Definition and implementation of design tokens to promote alignment with developers.
    ↘ Detailed documentation (usage rules, variations, accessibility) in Figma.
    ↘ Close collaboration with developers to ensure cross-device implementation and consistency.
    ↘ Implementation of UI review and feedback rituals to guarantee continuous quality.

    OBJECTIVES
    ↘ Creation of a scalable design system adapted to product needs and ready to support its scaling.
    ↘ Structuring of a robust UI foundation despite changes in graphic direction.
    ↘ Strengthening of Design/Dev collaboration through a clear and usable token system.
    ↘ Support for the product team in adopting and using the design system daily.

    TOOLS & METHODS
    ↘ Figma, Tokens Studio, Figma documentation, Notion/Slack collaboration, continuous review.
    ↘ Atomic Design, Design Tokens, interactive prototyping, UI consistency testing.

    SOCIAL NETWORKS
    April 2023 - July 2024 (1 year and 3 months)
    Paris, France
    At Spirtech, I led the design of an innovative dating application, working closely with the client in a process of constant questioning. My propensity to challenge established conventions, both in user flows and graphic design, allowed me to gain the client's trust through bold proposals.

    I developed a dynamic design system, navigating between atomic design and token implementation, while refining UI/UX components to create an experience distinct from usual standards. My approach transcended simple execution to offer a user experience that was both revolutionary and intuitive.

    APPROACH & PROCESS
    ↘ Systematic questioning of conventions in the dating app market.
    ↘ Creation of a dynamic design system integrating atomic principles and advanced tokens.
    ↘ Design of innovative user journeys breaking away from established standards.
    ↘ Development of distinctive and memorable UI/UX components.
    ↘ Rigorous questioning of each interface element to optimize the overall experience.
    ↘ Constant communication with the client to align creative vision and business objectives.

    OBJECTIVES
    ↘ Redefine the user experience in the dating app domain.
    ↘ Balance aesthetic innovation, functionality, and technical constraints.
    ↘ Develop a design system fostering continuous creativity and scalability.
    ↘ Create an interface reflecting a deep understanding of user expectations.
    ↘ Establish new standards in a market saturated by conventions.

    TOOLS & METHODS
    ↘ Figma, Adobe After Effect, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Lightroom, Notion, Spline.
    ↘ Interaction Design, Atomic Design, meticulous documentation.
    ↘ Compliance with iOS Guidelines combined with a disruptive approach.
