Grüezi! Salve! Hallo! Bonjour! Hello! Hola!
I’m Isabel Mercedes, a Communications Specialist with a natural talent for languages, currently based in the idyllic town of Verscio, Ticino, Switzerland. I am passionate about design, technology, video games and psychology.
I grew up fascinated by the quiet magic of computers — the way interfaces, websites, and games could open entire worlds with a single click. My first experiments in Photoshop and web design were attempts to understand that magic, to recreate the experiences that had captivated me. Over time, these explorations intertwined with my love for writing, reading, music, and psychology, forming the foundation of a creative path centered on technology and human experience.
My studies in Mass Communication, New Media, and later Technologies for Human Communication deepened this fascination. Courses in Interaction Design and HCI showed me how design could shape behavior, emotion, and understanding. Even when my career took me into fields far from design, the pull toward creativity, research, and technology never faded.
After completing a UX Design boot camp while working full‑time, I realized I needed a more tactile, collaborative environment — a place to explore interaction in all its forms. This led me to the MA in Interaction Design at SUPSI, where I now work with tangible interfaces, digital fabrication, and interdisciplinary teams. Here, I’m building the skills and perspectives that allow me to design experiences that question, support, and inspire.
My goal is to create work that contributes to social change and improves everyday life in subtle, meaningful ways.
