Hi humans

I'm Mariam, a product designer who designs for how people actually think.

I keep asking one slightly inconvenient question:

What if technology adapted to humans, not the other way round?

  • Product design
  • Human behaviour
  • Cognitive access

Mind the Human

I notice something ordinary. Then I ask why.

An app I never downloaded. Something my child said. A moment at work that didn’t quite make sense. Each issue starts with a small, real story, then follows the thread into psychology, behaviour and design to find out what’s really going on.

The technology is the setting. The science is the rabbit hole. The human is the story.

How storytelling led me to product design, what I’m curious about now, and the small, slightly ridiculous resident who lives on this site.
