Bridging brands, products and motion for teams that need to ship.
I'm William Mattey, a multidisciplinary designer with over 10 years across web design, branding and animation. I've designed and launched more than 50 brands, websites and digital interfaces, working end-to-end from narrative and identity to UI, motion and build.

Over the last decade I've moved between agencies, product teams and my own studio, working with companies across tech, AI, e-commerce, culture and education. I'm comfortable jumping between brand strategy, interface design and motion — and I enjoy projects that ask for all three at once.
I've led visual identities, product UX, design systems and launch campaigns for tools like Kompi.app, Jimbo and Hikari, as well as projects with larger teams at Criteo and other organisations.
What I enjoy most is partnering closely with founders and product leaders: understanding the problem, shaping a story around it, and then translating that into clear, expressive artefacts — from first pitch decks to live, shippable interfaces.

How I like to work
Design the whole system, not just the screen
From the first brief to the final hand-off, I think in terms of journeys, touchpoints and stories, not isolated pages.
Brand and product should feel inseparable
Logos, interfaces, motion and copy are all facets of one idea. The best work feels unmistakably like the same voice everywhere.
Ship, learn, then refine
I prefer momentum over perfection. Clear hypotheses, small bets and thoughtful iteration keep teams aligned and moving.
Make it clear, then make it delightful
Clarity is the baseline. Once people understand where they are and what they can do, there’s room for personality and surprise.
