Taking on new projects

Bryan Maxim · Product designer (UX/UI)I design products people actually enjoy using.

For 12 years I’ve turned rough ideas into clear flows, sharp interfaces and design systems developers love to build from. Web apps, mobile apps, SaaS: one designer, start to finish.

MXMPixels

My own design studio. I designed the brand system around a single orange pixel, a 48-hour website offer and a control panel clients use to edit their own sites.

02What I do

From the first question to the last pixel.

Hire me for one piece or the whole journey. Either way you work with me directly, not an account manager.

  • 01

    Product strategy & UX

    Before pixels, clarity. I map who your users are, what they’re trying to get done and where they get stuck, then shape the flows that get them there.

    • User flows
    • Information architecture
    • Wireframes
    • UX audits
  • 02

    UI design

    Interfaces that feel obvious and look like your brand, not a template. Every state designed: empty, loading, error and the happy path.

    • Web & mobile UI
    • Dashboards
    • Responsive layouts
    • Micro-interactions
  • 03

    Design systems

    Tokens, components and patterns in Sketch that match how your code works, so your team ships consistent screens without waiting on me.

    • Component libraries
    • Design tokens
    • Documentation
    • Dev-ready specs
  • 04

    Prototyping & testing

    Clickable prototypes you can put in front of real users (and investors) in days, then iterate on what the evidence says.

    • Interactive prototypes
    • Usability tests
    • Iteration rounds
    • Pitch-ready demos

03How I work

Short loops, clear decisions, no big-reveal surprises.

  1. 01Day 1–2

    Discover

    A call to understand the business, the users and what success looks like. I leave with a clear brief and the right questions.

  2. 02Week 1

    Define

    User flows and wireframes that settle the structure early, while changes are still cheap.

  3. 03Week 2–3

    Design

    High-fidelity UI and a clickable prototype, reviewed with you in short, frequent rounds. No big-reveal surprises.

  4. 04Ongoing

    Deliver

    A tidy Sketch file, components and specs your developers can build from, and I stay close while they do.

05About

One designer. Twelve years. No hand-offs.

I started designing websites twelve years ago and have worked on almost every kind of screen since: SaaS dashboards, mobile apps, marketplaces, onboarding flows, brand identities and more prototypes than I can count.

What I care about most is the part users never notice: the flow that just makes sense, the error message that actually helps, the empty state that tells you what to do next. Good product design feels invisible.

I work directly with founders and product teams, so the person you brief is the person who does the work. I also run MXMPixels, my studio for fast websites and branding.

Tools I use every day

  • Sketch
  • Framer
  • Adobe CC
  • Notion
  • AI-assisted prototyping
