I’m a designer and creative developer with a keen eye for good design and attention to detail
With more than 15 years of design engineering experience, I have the skills to build high-quality websites and products, and assist clients in addressing practical business challenges.

I’m Joonas — UI/UX Designer, Front-end Developer and sometimes even a Music Producer, currently working on Freepress. I have a strong and great visual taste and my field of interests is quite extensive, ranging from product design to creative coding and web development, branding, and design systems.
I get excited about finding unique and elegant solutions for complex user issues, and I love designing in the browser but I work a lot with Figma and other design tools as well. Usually I write applications with TypeScript, React, Sass and other modern tools.
With a background in both design and code, I thrive in the space between aesthetics and functionality, blending the best of both worlds to deliver great user experiences.
