№01
Who, in plain English?
Mihnea Trușcă — a UX/UI and brand designer based in Bucharest, Romania, with 25+ years of work. Long-term collaborations with Vodafone, Memorial, Regina Maria, Presto, Zurli and Papa Pictures; earlier-career work for Nike, Marriott, eMAG, Michelin and Nokia. Teacher of digital design at New Tech Academy. One person, no overhead.
№02
What do you actually do?
Four things, well: brand identity & visual systems, UX/UI for web, mobile and AR, landing-page and Webflow / Framer builds, and creative direction for teams that already have designers but need taste they can borrow.
№03
Who do you work with?
European product teams and agencies on part-time engagements — typically 1 to 3 days per week, remote, in your timezone (UTC+0 to UTC+2). Best fit: founders and creative directors who care about craft, and teams that want a senior pair of hands without a senior FTE.
№04
What does it cost?
From €75/hour for retainers. Fixed-scope projects (landing pages, identity systems, design audits) are quoted in a flat fee after a 20-minute call. No mystery, no salesperson.
