About

UX by Art

Where engineering precision meets design empathy.

Founded by a mechanical engineer turned UX/UI designer, UX by Art is rooted in the belief that great design isn’t just about how something looks—but how it feels, functions, and ultimately serves the people who use it. We bridge the technical and the human, combining years of engineering discipline with a deep understanding of user behavior and visual storytelling.

What we believe

Design should make people feel understood. Good UX respects attention. And a great experience lingers long after the click.
From early concepts to polished interactions, every project is crafted with intention: responsive, accessible, and meaningful. Whether it’s a landing page, a digital product, or a full website experience, we approach every build with pixel-level care, clear thinking, and a commitment to beauty that doesn’t compromise usability.

People Behind the Pixels

Good design doesn’t happen in isolation. This is the crew—designers, thinkers, visionaries, and builders—each bringing something unique to the table and helping shape the work.
