Seb Jarquin - Designer

Hello, I design and build intuitive and delightful digital services that help people.

9 years of experience as an IC and design lead across brand and product, from early-stage to established teams.

I'm a systems-minded product designer with a strong eye for detail, from early concepts to polished interfaces.

I’ve worked with many founders taking products from 0 to 1, and I’m a former founder and founding designer myself.

I’m experienced working end-to-end and enjoy user research and shaping product vision as much as shipping and iteration.

Comfortable working across the stack and shipping code to bridge functional design and engineering.

Efficient
Purposeful
Intuitive
Delightful

I design with a focus on clarity and efficiency, aiming to communicate ideas and solve problems without unnecessary complexity. My work is guided by purpose and grounded in context, whether that’s responding to a business need or contributing something meaningful beyond it. I strive to create work that is intuitive and self-explanatory, taking into account how people perceive, understand, and use what’s in front of them. I believe design should feel human and delightful. Careful craft and attention to detail help keep experiences pleasant and engaging while preserving utility.

About

I studied visual communication and design at Pratt Institute and started out in branding and art direction before joining Loeb.nyc’s incubator as a product designer. There, I worked closely with early-stage teams, helping take products from 0 to 1 and learning how to think in systems across brand and product. I later co-founded Troop, a civic tech startup focused on shareholder activism, where I became the founding designer and head of product. Today, I work independently through my studio, The Other Design Office, collaborating on cross-disciplinary design projects with organizations such as the OECD. I speak three languages, love the outdoors, and draw a lot in my spare time. I’m currently based in Paris.
