Service Designer

Bente Derksen

I like to look at the bigger picture, translate all the information, and connect the dots through empathy.

I see myself as a translator and empathic service designer; I am dedicated to creating solutions that harmoniously integrate technology into society, enhancing everyday life. Colleagues describe me as a designer who actively engages with diverse teams, harnessing both creative and strategic insights to guide projects.

I believe that good design should always start with a deep understanding of the needs and goals of the user. Service design can be the bridge that connects disciplines and brings design thinking to the heart of businesses, creating real impact.

My value lies in translating data, user insights, and stakeholder needs into practical, innovative designs that anticipate future trends. Driven by endless curiosity allows me to thrive in all kinds of environments , whether deeply technical or focused on people, and I find excitement and energy in solving complex challenges.

I apply thoughtful and well-crafted design solutions to every project, that work in both the digital and physical environment and are beautiful as well as intuitive to use. I love to design meaningful experiences based on research; I look at the bigger picture, translate all the information, and connect the dots through empathy.
