Hi, I'm Christian
I’m a UX/UI designer with a strong web development background. Web design has been a passion of mine for over 20 years, and I’ve been working professionally since 2015 — building eCommerce experiences ranging from design systems and information architecture to complex configurators and responsive UI.
I like taking complicated problems and turning them into simple flows and clear interfaces. I’m hands-on from concept to implementation, with a strong focus on usability, performance, and clean visuals.
Outside of work, I enjoy photography, CGI/3D, and building small side projects — usually with way too much attention to detail.

Druckraum.at
New Theme
I developed a new PrestaShop theme for druckraum.at to give the shop a more modern, approachable look and support a smoother shopping experience. Starting from a Bootstrap 3-based legacy theme, I redesigned key UI elements and improved the overall visual hierarchy to make the interface clearer and easier to use. I focused on UX-critical areas like navigation and checkout to reduce friction and improve conversion. The layout was rebuilt to be fully responsive using CSS Grid, so the experience works reliably across desktop and mobile.

Online Configurator
I worked on a newly developed online configurator built around real user needs and complex option logic. The main challenge was making a large number of choices feel simple — guiding users through the setup without overwhelming them. The configurator offers a smooth flow with transparent pricing, strong performance, and reliable error handling to build trust and help users avoid mistakes early. I implemented the UI using HTML and CSS and also led the project as Team lead, coordinating UX decisions with backend development and stakeholder priorities.

Web-to-Print Design-Tool
I designed and built a high-performance web-to-print design tool that works well on both desktop and mobile. The editor stays directly inside the product page, which reduces friction and supports higher conversion. For mobile, I used familiar patterns from iOS/Android photo apps, so the experience feels intuitive, fast, and easy to understand.

Website design and implementation
For druckraum.at, I built the website from scratch and developed the full corporate design from the ground up. Using PrestaShop as the platform, I customized the theme into a consistent, premium-looking UI and improved the UX continuously through iterative updates. I also created a scalable design system and refined the information architecture to make navigation clearer and help users reach decisions faster throughout the customer journey.

Prestocaffe.cz
Prestocaffe.cz is a website project for the Czech market, created with a long-established coffee roastery known for premium quality. My goal was to turn the brand into a modern, high-end digital experience while keeping the warm atmosphere you associate with Italian coffee culture. Because of language barriers and different design expectations, the project required a lot of alignment and iteration. I created high-quality renderings and built a consistent design system — inspired by the feeling of a traditional Neapolitan coffee bar.

Web Developer Training
I completed a web development training program at BFI Vienna, covering both front-end and back-end fundamentals. I worked with PHP, MySQL, and JavaScript, building database-driven websites and interactive UI components. For my final project, I developed a custom online configurator for a large printing client, combining Ajax-based interactions with a strong focus on usability.

Printshirt24.at
For Printshirt24.at, I built a custom T-shirt printing website using Deconetworks, with a focus on creating a clear ordering process and a consistent brand experience. The initial layout was very basic, so I improved the UI structure, strengthened the hierarchy, and aligned everything with the corporate design. The result is a cleaner, more modern experience that feels more trustworthy for customers.

Leubrainstimulator.at
Leubrainstimulator is a puzzle game that combines playful challenge with brain training in a modern, high-quality experience. I built the website end-to-end, translating the product into a clear digital presence with a smooth user flow and consistent visual design. Alongside theme customization, I created supporting visuals, photography, and copy to strengthen the brand and communicate product value with a confident tone.
