The short version

Quick intro

The short version

I spent my first years in advertising in São Paulo. Then I moved to London and started over as a designer, in my second language. Today I build design systems for UK asset managers, where the data is complex and the regulation is strict.

Marco Desiderio

"I design digital products that make people's lives a little less complicated."

More about me

One solid system can carry many brands and complex projects. I know, because I keep asking it to.

  • 15+ years in design and advertising. Almost 10 in product design, after 6 as an Account Director in São Paulo.
  • 3 years designing for UK asset managers, including Royal London, J O Hambro and Artemis.
  • 10+ clients on one design system. Built once for the betting industry. Ten brands, one system, far fewer arguments about button colours.
  • 40+ reusable components which is how we delivered Royal London in 3 months.

Projects

What I do

Design systems and theproducts built on them.

Design systems

Tokens, components and documentation that keep many brands consistent. Especially through rebrands.

Fintech and complex products

Fund pages, data and disclosures for people who read the small print, and for people who'd rather not.

Product design

From research to UI to Design QA. The why matters as much as the pixels.

AI-assisted workflows

Small tools that connect live data to design files, so nobody copies and pastes fund names at 6pm on a Friday.
