Back to original languageAbout Rémi
**Field Designer**, I have spent the last 8 years developing methodologies to evolve our ways of living and engage local communities in collective transitions. To achieve this, I developed a hybrid approach combining participatory democracy, popular education, speculative design, and service design.
Today, I use my expertise in human behavior and field experience to design experiences and narratives that make services clearer, more engaging, and more human.
I intervene where strategy, storytelling, and user experience need to be articulated, particularly through the following services:
🧠UX Audit & Recommendations
→ Evaluation of a user journey (website, interface, service), analysis of friction points, and clear deliverables with concrete improvement suggestions.
✍️Storyboard & Experience Design (workshop, storytelling, prototype)
→ Creation of user stories, immersive scenarios, or collaborative workshop outlines. Ideal for framing a new offering or prototyping a service.
💻UX/UI + Front-end Dev (landing page or simple interface)
→ Design + Mockup (Figma) + HTML/CSS/JS integration of clean, clear interfaces adapted to your real needs.
I am particularly comfortable in exploratory or hybrid projects, where a creative framework needs to be established while producing concrete and quickly actionable deliverables.
➕ Tools: Figma, Notion, HTML/CSS/JS (React), Miro, InDesign, etc.
➕ I also teach service design & project methodology.
