About

Selinay İblikci

I'm a senior product designer based in Amsterdam with 6+ years of experience designing digital products that people actually want to use. I started my career in Istanbul, building products for startups and agencies, before moving to Amsterdam in 2022. I founded PUOI Studio to work closely with startups and scale-ups on the design problems that matter most.

My background spans product design, design systems, brand identity, and no-code development. I believe good design is rigorous before it's beautiful — and that the best design decisions are the ones you can explain with evidence.

Working with clients across the Netherlands, Germany and the UK. Also available in Dutch.

The Name

Puoi gridare.

You can scream. You can make yourself heard.

I got this tattoo at 21. At the time, I was the kind of person who stayed quiet during chaos — this was my reminder to myself that silence isn't always strength.

Years later, when I founded the studio, the name was already there on my arm. Puoi. Because that's exactly what I believe great design should do for a product: make it impossible to ignore.

Too many well-built products stay invisible — not because they lack quality, but because they don't communicate what makes them worth choosing. That gap is where we work.

What I do

Areas of expertise

UX & Product Design

End-to-end product design from discovery to developer handoff. User research, journey mapping, wireframing, prototyping, and usability testing.

UI & Design Systems

Scalable component libraries, design tokens, and developer-ready specifications. Built for teams that need to move fast without breaking consistency.

Brand Identity

Visual identities built for the digital world first — logos, color systems, typography, motion language, and brand guidelines.

No-Code Development

From approved design to live URL in weeks using Webflow and Framer. CMS-powered sites your marketing team can manage independently.
