Hi, I'm Niky
a UX/UI designer drawn to complicated problems and the messy middle they live in.
Research‑led, user‑first, occasionally found halfway up a climbing wall, gardening or
with a paintbrush. This is my working notebook.
Four flavours of the work I do.
What you'll see below is a sample — a few mockups per category. The detailed case studies, methodology and results live in a longer conversation.
Workshops that ship.
Cross‑functional alignment workshops, vision-setting with stakeholders. The half of the job that doesn't show up on Dribbble — but is the difference between a project that lands and one that drifts.
From insights to informed decisions
Research is what earns confidence in a solution, and what moves teams from assumptions toward evidence. Readable reports, quotable insights, and actionable frameworks that continue to inform design decisions long after the project ends.
Simple
Surfaces,
Complex
Systems
Web design spanning the full spectrum of complexity — from clean educational pages for the general public, to dense internal systems used by specialists managing large volumes of data. Whatever the surface, the goal stays the same: clarity that holds up under pressure.
Pocket - Sized Problems
From onboarding to everyday use. Apps that guide new users in, then stay out of the way once they know where they're going. Screens designed for real conditions: distracted moments, small windows of time, users who just need the answer quickly.
Things I do
when I'm not
designing things.
Born in the Czech highlands, trained at Masaryk University in Brno, designing for people since 2012. Several years inside digital agencies that taught me to listen first and design second. Fintech, e-commerce, and the last stretch in wellbeing and healthcare — the work is still the same: finding the answer that respects users, stakeholders, engineers, and the clock all at once.
Habit of asking "but who's it actually for?" until people roll their eyes.
Outside of work: Climbing, hiking, running. Long bike rides. Acro yoga. Tending a small garden. Studying landscape architecture. Slowly improving a collection of oil paintings. Things I do badly and love anyway. They keep my eye honest and my hands steady.
Let's talk.
If anything above looks interesting — for a role, a project, or a coffee — I'd love to hear from you. Detailed case studies, references and full work history available on request.
