01 — Hello
I'm Maxime — a product designer based in France.
I've spent the last few years helping teams ship calm, useful products. I sit between strategy and craft — mapping flows before pixels, questioning requirements before solving them, and shipping in small, confident increments.
Lately, I've been focused on the next wave of AI-first products — designing agentic interfaces that stay useful, honest and in control. When I'm not designing, I write, tinker with code, and work on side projects for causes I care about.
I think better with a passport in my bag.
Traveling is how I stay curious. I've learned more about design sitting in a Neapolitan alley, watching a cobbled Istanbul street wake up, or tracing a Danish facade, than from most books. Places teach me about scale, rhythm, constraint — the same things I chase in products.

04 — How I work
My process is less a rigid method and more a set of habits I've built over years of shipping. It's designed to stay close to the user, reduce waste, and keep the team confident at every step.
