Product & Visual Designer
Wambiru
Hi, I'm Lorraine. I design digital products and visual experiences with equal curiosity for how they work and how they feel.

How I approach
every problem.
"Good design is not just how something looks, it's how clearly it communicates, how gracefully it handles the unexpected, and how respectfully it treats the person using it."
Start with People
Every brief starts with one question: what does the person on the other end actually need? I sit with real users before touching a wireframe; observing, questioning, and unlearning assumptions.
Clarity Over Complexity
The best design makes hard things feel effortless. I strip away until what remains is precisely what's needed, nothing more. Simplicity is the hardest thing to achieve and the most valuable thing to deliver.
Iterate Without Ego
No design survives first contact with users, and it shouldn't. I validate early, fail fast, and treat every round of feedback as a gift. The version that ships is always stronger for what was thrown away.
Aesthetic with Intent
Visual craft isn't decoration, it's communication. Every colour, typeface, and spacing decision carries meaning. I design systems that are as considered as they are beautiful.
Outside of Work
I'm Lorraine;
designer at heart,
builder by practice.
I'm a Product and Visual Designer with 2+ years of experience creating digital experiences, visual identities, and editorial graphics for organisations including BBC News and the Gates Foundation.
My work brings UX thinking and visual craft together, from discovery research and information architecture to high-fidelity interfaces, design systems, and brand identities. I also use AI-assisted coding to bring my designs to life, turning concepts into working digital experiences and exploring ideas beyond static mockups.
I'm open to full-time and freelance opportunities in product and visual design, particularly with teams that value design as an integral part of how they think, build, and communicate.
