Front-end Development
Projects
My first Agency work gave me an opportunity to design websites that were more than digital brochures. All examples are designed by me. I also designed the branding for many of these companies. I took care of the front-end development and in many cases also integrated the templates into CMS systems. My colleagues took care of specific dynamic modules.
Role
Brand designer, Web designer, Front-end developer
Techniques and Tools
Photoshop, Fireworks, HTML, CSS, ModX, Typo3
Projects
I designed websites for a variety of clients and developed the first ones for Netscape Navigator. I wrote the HTML directly on the server and used CorelDRAW and Photoshop to design the interfaces. The projects might not win the nobel prize for interface design but they give an impression of the life of a web designer in the 90's.
Role
Web designer and developer
Techniques and tools
Photoshop, CorelDRAW, HTML, JavaScript
