About

Hi, I’m Maque, a Product & Web Designer based in Uruguay. I help founders, brands, and studios design and ship full websites end-to-end: brand, UX, UI, motion, and front-end. Comfortable working solo or with engineering teams.

I blend product thinking with strong visual craft. I care about sites that feel intentional, load fast, and actually convert, not just look pretty.

If you’re looking for a designer to own the whole website from empty Figma to live URL, let’s talk.

Delivered a polished, dev-ready product with a 10/10 client evaluation.

An immersive web experience and my bachelor thesis project. Conceived as a navigable digital house, it unfolds across three interconnected environments (Future, Past, and Present) where space, interaction, sound, and narrative coexist as one system. I led the entire creative and technical process: concept, 3D design, UX, sound design, and front-end development.

A full end-to-end solo project for an advisory firm. I designed the brand identity, structured the UX, designed a bilingual EN/ES interface, animated the interactions, and built the front-end with a custom CMS so the client could manage content independently. Shipped in under one month, from empty Figma to live URL.
