UX Lead · Design

Good design has one job:
getting out of the way.
That's convenience.

Thomas · UX Lead at Wollmilchsau
Honestly? I just really hate it when things are harder than they need to be. Turns out that's a career.

Thomas Skowronek

I'm Thomas — a UX Lead based in Lippstadt, Germany, working remotely for Wollmilchsau in Hamburg. I've been designing for 7 years, mostly in the AI space, and I studied Visual Computing & Design.

My design philosophy? Great design is invisible. The best interface is the one you don't notice. I obsess over that frictionless moment when everything just clicks.

I train, I cook, I game — and I disappear into rabbit holes regularly. Japan has had my attention for years, across culture, travel, anime and manga. I watch movies and read to escape or grow, rarely anything in between.
