Prologue
Some ways of designing change.
Others stay.
More than eighteen years ago I started by designing objects. Over time the tools changed, the formats changed, even the name of what I do changed. The way I stand in front of a problem never did.
My path
Every discipline I moved through taught me to see differently.
I started by designing textile products for babies: thinking about how something is made, how it's used and how it cares for whoever has it close. For eight years I ran it as my own venture and brand. Then came brands and visual identity and, later, experience design, UX/UI and frontend. Each discipline left me a different way of observing, asking and deciding. Today they all live inside a single way of thinking.

The way I work
Every project is different. The reasoning isn't.
I don't follow a closed methodology, I follow an order of questions. The project changes, the team changes, the scale changes — but the way of thinking holds.
01
Investigate
Before proposing anything, I listen: what the business needs, what's happening to whoever will use it, what the technology allows.
02
Prioritize
Not everything makes it in. Deciding what stays out is designing too; that's where the product's focus is won.
03
Design
Only now do the screens appear. Flows, system and detail built to scale, not to show off.
04
Validate
I prototype, test, correct. It's cheaper to be wrong in a file than in production.
05
Implement
I stay close to development. A design doesn't end in Figma: it ends working.
My philosophy
What I believe when I design.
I don't start with the screen.
The screen is the last decision, not the first. Before it comes the problem, the person who has it and what the business needs to solve.
I don't design to impress.
I want something to be understood without effort, not to earn applause. Clarity ages better than effect.
Small decisions build the product too.
Spacing, an error message, the order of two buttons. No one notices them when they're right; everyone suffers them when they're wrong.
AI speeds things up; judgment stays human.
I use AI to explore and iterate faster. Deciding what's actually good is not something I delegate.
Experience
The scale changed. The challenge didn't.
Each job was bigger and more complex than the last. The challenge, though, repeats in all of them: finding clarity where there was noise.

What I bring to a team
Not tools. Ways of contributing.
01
Clarity in complexity
Taking a tangled system and making it understandable: research, information architecture and flows people follow without thinking.

Frontend
Understanding code makes me a better designer.
I don't sell myself as a developer. But knowing how what I design gets built changes the decisions: I know what's simple, what's expensive and where design and development meet.

Epilogue
Now, yes.Hi, I'm Mica.
You walked through the way I think before you saw my face. That was the point. I've been designing for more than eighteen years and it still feels like the best job in the world: understanding a problem until it turns simple. If you made it this far, something here resonated.
