About / Ardavan Hemmatpour
A designer with
a researcher’s curiosity.
I work where product complexity meets human behaviour. My job is to make that meeting clearer, more useful and more considered.
Ardavan Hemmatpour · Product designer & UX researcher
I’m drawn to products that ask people to understand something difficult, make an important choice or navigate a system with many moving parts.
My experience spans fintech, digital services, data-intensive interfaces and applied AI. I’ve worked with teams in Malaysia and Singapore, connecting behavioural questions to information architecture and interface design.
Today, I consult on product interfaces, dashboards and brand identity for KAZIMI. Before that, my work at Foray Advisory explored applied AI, training and its use in business and UX processes.
Alongside practice, I research motivation, autonomy, trust and social connection in online worlds. That work keeps me interested in the people behind the patterns, and careful about the evidence behind a design decision.
