about paul olyslager

About Paul Olyslager in short: I’m a graphic / web designer from Antwerp (Belgium) and obsessed with web usability, UX (user experience) -and UI (user interface) design.

Currently I work as a webmaster for Corelio, a Belgian based newspaper publisher (including De Standaard, Het Nieuwsblad, L’Avenir and Sportwereld), where I use and constantly develop my strong appetite for interface design, wireframing, usability and A/B testing.

From 2008 ’till mid 2010 I worked in Barcelona as an interface and graphic designer for Machinas Digital Development S.L., a great company which is specialized in online branding in the fashion sector. My latest projects were the redesign of the HUGO BOSS checkout system (US and European websites) and the redesign of the ESPRIT checkout system and main web pages (European websites).

I studied graphic design and interactive multimedia design and I am very passionate about webdesign and photography. I’m also a practishioner of user-centered design and love to improve the usability of applications.

This blog is my online playground to share my knowledge and ideas, to experience and discover new things and a chance to scribble down complete nonsense.

If you would like to know more about me, you can always contact me or subscribe to the news updates. You can also have a look at the Google+ page of Paul Olyslager.
