Product Designer, iOS Engineer and founder of tastd, based in Paris. I build products end-to-end, from first sketch to App Store.

Hugo Vangay

With +5 years of experience as an independent Product Designer, I’ve worked with startups based at Station F and clients from Voodoo across B2B and B2C projects.

I approach every project with a founder’s mindset. Shipping isn’t a separate phase, it’s part of the design. I work hands-on across research, product design, design systems and iOS development, so every decision is grounded in what it takes to actually ship.

When I’m not designing, I’m building tastd, my own iOS app written in SwiftUI, live on the App Store. It’s the proof that one designer can take a product from sketch to release, and the lens I bring to every client project.

Outside of work, I’m chasing new cities, trying new spots, and chasing curiosity wherever it takes me. Everything I build comes from the same place: love of the craft, respect for the user, and pragmatism about shipping.

If this sounds like a good match, let’s work together.
