Slava Shestopalov

Slava is a designer from Ukraine, based in Berlin. As a journalist by education, he became a designer (almost) accidentally over 11 years ago. Since then, he has been always trying to push the limits of his profession and build bridges between related areas rather than specializing in a single thing.

Slava works as a Design Manager at Bolt (https://bolt.eu), a product company that strives for improving affordable mobility. He curates courses on design at Projector Institute (https://prjctr.com/), is a visiting lecturer in German and Ukrainian universities, and writes a blog (https://shestopalov.medium.com/). Slava’s experience includes projects in the oil and gas, EdTech, LegalTech, and FinTech domains. He is a promoter of participatory design and web accessibility.
