I’m Tarek Alfutih, an interaction designer focused on making complex systems intuitive, usable, and easy to understand. I work across UX/UI, usability and accessibility, and build rapid prototypes to test ideas early. I combine user-centered research (interviews, observational studies, usability testing) with hands-on prototyping (including tangible interaction) and front-end development to create clear, inclusive experiences. I also have a strong background in visual communication and illustration, which helps me craft effective visual design for products and educational contexts.…I’m Tarek Alfutih, an interaction designer focused on making complex systems intuitive, usable, and easy to understand.
