Hello, My name is Yuval Halevy

A little about me

Designer at heart, I love everything playful and creative. As a product designer, I specialize in turning complex ideas into intuitive human experiences that are both fun and easy to use. My work spans both military and civilian sectors, where I bring a mix of technical expertise and an obsessive attention to detail to solve tough challenges.

Right now, I’m leading a fantastic team of designers at Studio 08:15 in Tel Aviv. I’m always looking for smart, simple solutions that work in high-stakes environments where getting it right really matters. Outside of work, I also enjoy drawing, photography, NBA, animation, and laughter.
