Hey there
you awesome thing!
Hey there!
Hey there!
My name is Elia, and I'm an Award-winning Product & Brand Designer blending UX strategy, digital product design, and brand creation. Also recognized on The Next Web 750 Rising Talent shortlist and winner of an Awwwards for Studio by Miyagami.
Psychology matters. Understanding what drives people reveals the real problems worth solving. Instead of shying away from complexity, I embrace it - digging deep to find conceptual answers that others miss. My Indonesian heritage and work in queer communities taught me that at the core of every great design lies empathy and genuine understanding.
I lead high-impact projects for global brands, startups, and cultural organizations. From strategic discoveries that influence major business decisions to brand ecosystems that go beyond visuals, shaping product development, storytelling, and market success.
Equally at home in research sessions and hands-on execution. Always something that works beautifully. Concept is key. Make it deep. Every project is also an opportunity to ask bigger questions: "Design has always been about power; who gets seen, whose needs matter, whose voices are heard. Are we designing for the world as it is, or the world as it could be?"
