Work with me
Let's work together
I’m Vas, a product designer and design engineer
based in Taipei. I help teams make their websites
clearer, their products easier to use, and their design
systems easier to build with.
You work directly with me on product strategy, creative
direction and implementation, with the scope agreed
around what needs to change.
Availability
Available for new projects. Book a call
Engagements
- Audit $1,500 USD
- For when you know something’s off but not what. A week on your website, product or design system, then a recorded walkthrough, a prioritised list of fixes and a call. The fee comes off any project booked within 30 days. Book an audit
- Website Starting from $5,000 USD
- For an existing offer that isn’t landing clearly. I help drive the site’s creative direction and copywriting, then design and develop it with reusable layouts and a CMS setup, built on your existing brand. Complex migrations or integrations are quoted separately. Built with Framer, Webflow or a custom headless setup. See how I’ve done it at RosettaAI.
- Design-system foundation Starting from $10,000 USD
- For a product that has drifted into inconsistency. A scoped set of components in design and code, one flow implemented with them, and the guidance, documentation and skill library to maintain it. Built with React. See how I’ve done it at Sage, Testa, RosettaAI and Eluan.
- Product feature or workflow Starting from $3,000 USD for discovery
- For a feature whose requirements and interactions aren’t settled yet. Discovery resolves them. Implementation is scoped separately, starting from $20,000 USD, once we agree who owns the backend, integrations and release. See how I’ve done it at Testa, RosettaAI and Selfridges.

“If you’re looking for a contractor who can seamlessly integrate into an existing design team, look no further than Vas. He’s efficient, collaborative, and gets the job done with excellence.
Over the past year at Sage, I was consistently impressed by his ability to quickly adapt, communicate his ideas effectively to stakeholders, and deliver complex design patterns. The sheer volume and quality of his work were remarkable, and the Sage Design System wouldn’t be as mature or robust as it is today without his contributions.”
Questions
- What kinds of teams do you work with?
- Software teams and businesses with complex offers. Existing engineering teams are welcome. I work alongside your engineers in the same codebase and review process, so the work lands where they already ship.
- Do you handle both design and development?
- Yes. I design the interface and build it in code, through to production. Backend, integrations and release are agreed at the start, so it’s clear which parts I build and which stay with your team.
- Can you work with our existing brand, code and design system?
- Yes. I start from what you already have: your brand, your codebase, your components. You don’t need to rebuild anything or adopt Eluan, my own design system, to work with me.
- What can our team keep using afterwards?
- Everything we agree on: the files, the code, the patterns and guidance on maintaining them. Where it helps, that includes instructions and examples for AI-assisted development, so your team can keep building the same way.
- Do you work with clients outside Taiwan?
- Yes. I’m based in Taipei (UTC+8) and work remotely with teams anywhere. We agree call times and overlapping hours at the start, since some timezones share more of the day than others.
- How do we start?
- Book a call with the link under Availability, or email me@vasf.io with the current project, what you want to change, your timing and any budget constraints. You don’t need a finished brief.
