My practice

Hi, I’m Tamar Roemer! As a design anthropologist and civic designer, I combine cultural sensitivity with human-centered-design methodologies to help public and private organizations address complex problems.

In my practice I explore and define wicked challenges through deep comprehension of problems, I use creative methodologies to co-design solutions, and I learn through experimentation how to iterate solutions that best fit users' needs. The processes that I lead are based on dialogue and shared sense-making by establishing partnerships between users, service providers, and organizations.

The outcomes of these processes include projects and initiatives that answer users’ and stakeholders’ needs. In addition, I help organizations understand and define working principles that support a framework for holistic innovation.
