Chris O'Connor

I design clear, useful products for messy, real-world problems.

Product designer with 10+ years shaping consumer and B2B products end to end, from first sketch to shipped pixels. I work across digital products, game UI and physical goods, and care as much about the system underneath a screen as the screen itself.

Why me?

My key strengths

10+ Years of Experience

A decade shaping consumer and B2B products across digital, game UI and physical goods, from startups to retail shelves.

Systems Thinker

I design the structure and rules underneath a screen, so a product stays coherent as it grows, not just on the first frame.

Skilled in React, HTML & CSS

Comfortable building in code, I close the gap between the mockup and the build instead of throwing it over a wall.

End-to-End Craft

Research, UX, visual design, original illustration and 3D under one roof, so the whole experience speaks one language.

Production-Aware

I design for the real constraints of manufacture, game engines and devices, so the work survives the trip from file to finished object.

Effective Collaborator

I work closely with engineers, founders and cross-functional teams, and treat the overlap between disciplines as a feature, not friction.

About Me

Chris O'Connor

Hi, I'm Chris

I'm the designer who asks, "What problem does this actually solve?" before jumping into a design. With a background spanning consumer apps, game UI, financial technology and physical product, I design holistic experiences that satisfy real user needs and drive meaningful outcomes.
