Peace Nest
Smart home Application
What if your house could tell you exactly where energy is being wasted and help you act on it?
What if your house could tell you exactly where energy is being wasted and help you act on it?
I created a user-friendly, adaptable smart home experience where people could easily connect any device, without being limited by brand or network.
I led the UX and UI design, focusing on making complex setups simple, helping users understand how much energy each device uses, and giving them clear, actionable insights.
The goal was to empower users to take control of their home while saving money and enjoying the same level of comfort, with complete peace of mind.

Your questions, answered.
Just in case you still have some questions, here are some of the frequently asked or just try to contact me directly.
From Adrian, 7:23 PM
Why I’m leaving my current job?
While a lot of people are “saying” they want to achieve more I want to learn more. As the market changes, new ideas emerge I want to learn more and do more as well. I’m looking for a new challenge where I can grow and learn to become your number one guy when you need the best results for your product.
I’m looking for full time job or just contract/ freelance?
While I primarily target full time job, I occasionally accommodate contract and freelance projects, often with long-term commitment.
Can you collaborate with one or more in house designer/developer?
Absolutely. I have experience in collaborating, mentoring and helping your internal teams and third-party collaborators to ensure alignment and smooth execution for any goals that you want to achieve. Think of me as an extension of your team. That's exactly how I worked with clients like Adobe, Mercedes-Benz, Peace Nest and many others.
How soon can I start a new project?
I typically start within 1-3 days, depending on availability. Get in touch to see if I have any available spots at the moment.
What if I only need a small design task or a freelance project?
While I primarily take on larger projects, I occasionally accommodate smaller tasks, or a small freelance project within my ongoing retainer. Reach out with your details and I will see how I can help.
What happens if a project scope changes mid-way?
Don’t worry, I understand that priorities can shift, especially in fast-moving industries. For fixed projects, I can issue a revised scope of work (SOW) for any new additions or changes. For retainer clients, these adjustments can often be rolled into your ongoing engagement. For full time jobs I’m more than flexible to help amend the roadmap, designs and help my colleagues & stakeholders to achieve the highest results.
How do I Charge?
For ongoing product design, I offer a monthly subscription model, giving you the flexibility to pause or cancel anytime. For fixed scope projects like an MVP, branding or websites, I provide a clear quote based on your specific needs. Most pricing starts at £ 3k for most projects with a 30% deposit to start work.
