Ian is skilled in all stages of the product development process from concept through manufacturing.

Expanding skill sets - Broaden your perspective on designroskakori
The term design can mean different things to people from different backgrounds. This talk from the PyGRAZ and UX Graz meetup from 2023-07-25 acts as basis for an open discussion between these two user groups. It describes the "minimum viable everything" design of an actual application under development. Starting from the problem to solve it explores the evolution of the data models and visualizes a major rework. It also showcases a few approaches to "low effort" UI in the early phase of a project when concepts are still in flux.
Planning your outdoor space should be as exciting as seeing the project come to life before your very eyes.
On time and on budget, Archadeck welcomes the opportunity to design and build the backyard you’ve always dreamed about.
