For context, I used to work for c2c on a weekly retainer at Inviqa. Every Wednesday was a c2c day, and every Wednesday morning we got our daily brief. Sometimes it's a small task: like, redesigning an icon or a web component; and sometimes it's a simple question like the one above…

I had the pleasure of working with Direnç while he was at Inviqa. He is calm, collected and knows his stuff when it comes to experience design. Great affable personality too! He has a real passion for his job and gives you lots of well thought thorough ideas and options to choose from. I always looked forward to seeing what Direnç had turned our briefs into at the end of their retainer day with us.
