Elisabetta Fino

UX Engineer designing product systems from flows to implementation

I design systems where UX, architecture, and implementation stay aligned.

01. How I work

From idea to working product

I help shape digital products from early product thinking to build-ready interfaces, keeping UX, structure, and implementation aligned.

1. Discovery

Clarify goals, users, constraints, and scope.

2. UX Structure

Map flows, content, and product logic.

3. Prototype

Validate direction with clickable prototypes.

4. Implementation Support

Translate design into scalable UI patterns.

5. Iteration & Delivery

Refine through feedback, constraints, and use.

02. Case Studies

Designing product systems from UX to production-ready architecture

Projects showing how I structure systems, define flows, and turn design into working interfaces.
