I’m Sahar, a multidisciplinary designer with a background in architecture and a growing passion for UX and UI design.
My journey began in architecture, urban planning, and landscape design, where I learned to think deeply about how people interact with spaces. That mindset now shapes the way I design intuitive, human-centered digital experiences.
Two years ago, I transitioned into product design, completing Google’s UX Design Certificate along with courses in Sweden, Iran, and Delft University. Since then, I’ve designed four mobile and web applications across e-commerce, housing, and education—combining analytical research with visual storytelling to create meaningful digital products.
Originally from Iran, I’ve studied and worked across Italy, Switzerland, Sweden, and the Netherlands. Living in diverse cultural environments and speaking several languages has helped me understand different perspectives, aesthetics, and social norms—skills that greatly enrich my user research and design process.
Currently, I’m part of Barsin Design Studio, where I explore the intersection of space, technology, and user experience—crafting designs that are functional, culturally grounded, and emotionally engaging.
