Portrait of Nad Chanan

Hi, I’m Nad!

I’m a UX/UI designer and art director based in Geneva. I call myself a Creative Dreamer in Design: I’ve always been drawn to what is beautiful and emotional, and I want my work to carry that.

Over the past ten years I’ve designed websites, apps and design systems for brands such as Nespresso, Firmenich, Pierre Fabre and the ICRC, and more recently internal banking tools for Groupe Pictet. Beyond design, I write, make music and produce video.
