Designer-built
websites
for
founders and firms
done winging it.
Brand, website or product, designed and built end to end by one person. Mobile-first, no agency layers, no template that looks like everyone else's.
Product design & build
Turn an idea into something people actually use.
For founders with an app or platform to build. Discovery, mobile-first design and development, ready for real users, not just investor demos.
Studio on Call
Your website and design, looked after every month.
Updates, new pages, content changes, CMS management and fresh designs when you need them. One monthly fee, one person who already knows your brand.
What I've built, written up properly
A few of the products and brands I've helped grow.
artycl.app
A LinkedIn content tool for freelancers, designed and built solo end to end.
yunako.nl
A men's skincare brand built from scratch. Custom Shopify theme, no templates.
bakr.media
Portfolio site for a videographer. Vimeo integration for full-quality playback, Sanity CMS so the client can update projects without touching code.
No black box. Just process.
01Call & Scope
A short call to understand what you need, then a clear scope and price before anything starts.
02Direction
Early concepts and direction, so the right approach is agreed before full design work begins.
03Design
The bulk of the design work happens here, screen by screen, in the open as it takes shape.
04Build
Design becomes a working product, built and tested piece by piece as it comes together.
05Launch
It ships live. Afterward, ongoing support only continues if it's actually useful to you.
Karisu.Studio
Not an agency. Not a template shop. One designer who designs and builds the whole thing, from first call to launch, and stays reachable after.
Nilo
Designer & developer
Amsterdam to Tokyo to Hong Kong. Asia showed me what a truly mobile-first market looks like, now every product I touch starts at the smallest screen.
You're not the only one.
These are real situations, not hypotheticals. If one lands, there's a good chance I've solved it before.
Your reputation took years to build. Your website should show it in five seconds, on a phone.
