Luis Praxmarer
I am Luis Praxmarer, an interaction designer based in Zurich. After working in a strategic design agency for two years, I improved my UI-UX, crafting, and prototyping skills during my Interaction Design studies at the Zurich University of the Arts. In my work, I always consider the design of the entire service. Humans or non-humans are at the center, and I ensure they are involved in the process to achieve efficient collaboration using suitable design methods. I like to work according to the double diamond principle and enjoy reflecting on my work to achieve the best possible result.
During my studies, I also discovered my passion for VJing. Starting with Touchdesigner and later with Resolume, I create, under my artist name Pralux, thoughtfully crafted visual compositions that follow the rhythm of the music and gradually change thematically over time.
