About
Hi I’m Ayako Matsuo. It is nice to meet you!
I’m a UI/visual designer with eight years of experience
as a freelance textile designer and have a keen eye for visual detail.
I’m passionate about creating aesthetic and practical objects.
Since my relocation to Berlin in 2015, I've dedicated myself to crafting textile-based home décor.
Now, as a UI visual designer at Ura design, I specialise in UI visual design and print layout while collaborating closely with in-house developers to deliver seamless, user-friendly experiences.
As a freelance designer, I also work on project-based assignments for other design agencies, ensuring a dynamic and versatile perspective across various project.
This rich blend of experiences, from managing my own business to mastering digital marketing, SEO, and UX design, has shaped my approach. I strive to create designs that are not only visually compelling but also deeply intuitive and functional, whether on screen or in print.
