LIZA KARIMOVA
Multidisciplinary design builder.
I design and ship complex systems across software, digital platforms, and physical spaces. Most recently, I built a native iOS application, bringing together systems thinking, user empathy, and hands-on technical execution.

What I'm working on
Home Arc App
I designed and built Home Arc, a native iOS application that enables homeowners, decorators, and real estate professionals to quickly create floor plans, arrange furniture, review dimensions, and easily share layouts. Home Arc is in Beta, and will soon be available on the App Store.

My Art Expression
Oil Painting
Outside of work, I love to hike and backpack, and then paint what I see. I'm building towards my goal of oil painting on the top of a mountain. I also practice needle felting and ashtanga yoga.

How I Experiment
Coding Projects
I started off learning AI coding tools because I was curious about the freedom that they could bring me as a designer. One of my first projects, Wordiagram, explored transforming breaking news headlines into live, visual snapshots of the world, to offer a calmer way to receive the news.
