Hi, I'm Ben Fraser 👋
I'm a UX/Interaction/Product designer based in Sheffield, UK, with over 15 years experience.
I design, facilitate & code clean, intuitive, accessible products and services.
About me
Having first acquired designing for humans skills through an architecture degree, I later found my calling in applying these to the field of digital product design.
With experience in government, start-ups and the charitable sector, I am a versatile designer, an accomplished team leader and a proficient front-end developer.
My aim is the creation of products and services that ultimately work seamlessly for the user - irrespective of their level of skill, disability or education. It is my way of distilling my creative drive towards helping people lead better lives.

Ben's clarity of communication and expertise in GDS compliance has been exemplary. His speed, creativity and capabilities at creating prototypes - even 'on the fly' - is nothing short of outstanding and has been instrumental in our delivery of a successful project. His willingness to support the wider teams has helped deliver a successful end-to-end solution within our tight timeframes. His personable nature also means he is a great colleague to work with.
I can enthusiastically recommend Ben. He has an eye for detail, is organized, sees the bigger picture, and thinks about both desirability and feasibility when designing. Ben is also a fantastic colleague to have around—he's always willing to help out his team members.
