I design with logical structure, craft with artistic mastery, and scale with AI efficiency.
Hi! I’m Carol Garrido, a Senior UX/UI and Product Designer originally from Andorra, currently based in Italy.
My journey into the digital product space is rooted in my passion for visual storytelling, developed through years of experience in Graphic Design and Illustration. This artistic foundation gives me a sharp eye for composition, color theory, and pixel-perfect aesthetics.
I love every single stage of the design process. I enjoy getting my hands dirty with initial sketches and complex user research, translating those abstract problems into intuitive interfaces, and finally bringing them to life through scalable Design Systems and prototypes.
My Hybrid Framework
👁️ UI Artistry & Aesthetics: Thanks to my background in visual arts, my designs escape the "generic template" trap. I bring strong typography, identity, and tailored visual narratives to digital products.
📐 System-Driven UX: I don't just design static screens; I build scalable ecosystems. I specialize in crafting robust UI Kits and component governance in Figma to ensure flawless developer handoff and product consistency.
⚡ AI Copilot Efficiency: I actively leverage tools like Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini for rapid research synthesis and UX writing, alongside Figma and Canva AI to accelerate asset generation. This allows me to cut down manual execution and focus heavily on product strategy.
Always Leveling Up
I believe a great designer never stops expanding their toolkit. Right now, I am actively leveling up my skills in:
3D Modelling: Expanding my visual assets and UI art into the third dimension.
Advanced Product Strategy: Aligning user needs deeper with business metrics.
English (C1 Advanced): Ensuring seamless, high-level communication with international teams.
When I’m Not Pushing Pixels...
You’ll probably find me engaging my brain in other creative universes. I am a massive fan of:
🎨 Illustrating: Keeping my traditional and digital drawing skills sharp.
🎮 Video Games: Analyzing interactive experiences and immersive UI firsthand.
📚 Books & Comics: Fueling my visual imagination and storytelling.
🎵 Music: The perfect soundtrack for deep-work design sessions.
I’m always looking to connect with innovative product teams, startups, and creators who value visual excellence and data-driven design.
Let’s turn complex ideas into impactful digital experiences.
