Maison de Méthode
At Maison de Méthode, I believe research is the foundation of every great experience. I founded this studio to uncover how people interact with digital products, services, and environments, and to give organizations the clarity to design with confidence.
Through interviews, usability testing, journey mapping, and spatial audits, I reveal not just what users do, but why. My approach is rooted in evidence and guided by method, transforming human behavior into actionable insight.
The mission is simple: replace assumptions with research, so every experience, whether digital or spatial, feels intuitive, meaningful, and effortless.
Maison de Méthode, where insight becomes direction, and research shapes experience.
Photography
& storytelling
Every image on this website was captured through my own lens during my travels. For me, photography and design are connected, both require observing flow, light, detail, and the quiet moments that shape how we feel in a space.
All of the photos you see here are black and white, personally taken by me, and chosen to reflect the Maison de Méthode aesthetic: clean, modern, warm, and human-centered. They aren’t just decoration, they’re part of the story, grounding my work in lived experience and atmosphere.

Behind Success
Valerie Koppang
I’m Valerie Koppang, a UX researcher and strategist with a passion for understanding how people experience the world around them, whether through a digital product, a service interaction, or a physical environment.
My journey began in the U.S. and Europe, where I earned a dual master’s degree in UX design and product management. My thesis explored trust and human interaction with humanoid robots in autism education, sharpening my ability to uncover the why behind user behavior. Since then, I’ve applied these methods to hospitality, retail, and digital platforms, from auditing boutique hotels to shaping e-commerce experiences.
I founded Maison de Méthode to bring research-driven clarity to design. Through interviews, usability studies, journey mapping, and spatial audits, I translate human insight into clear direction for brands and organizations.
At the core of my work I believe the most powerful experiences are the ones that feel seamless, where every interaction is intentional, consistent, and human-centered.
