Dreaming
things up, then
running them as
living products.
I'm Lydia — a Product Designer and Design Engineer who builds, writes, and experiments at the intersection of design, systems, and emerging technology.
Explore my work →I treat product design as the work of connecting people, systems and implementation — the interesting part is rarely the surface.
I like turning abstract ideas into something you can actually use, watch and argue with, as early as possible. Most of my working time is spent moving back and forth between design, prototype, system and engineering.
dreamlydia is where I keep what I'm building, and the thinking that forms while building it.
Design from Self → Design beyond Self.
Start from a real tension, turn the core hypothesis into a working product, and learn through real use. Then frame the human change, shape the product with intention, and let reality keep evolving it.

The first prototype is a question. I build to understand, then design with intent. Design starts with who, and ends with what changes.
