About Yes [ies]

As a designer with 4+ years of agency experience, I initially started in graphic design before transitioning to digital design projects.


My approach centers on creating strong concepts, maintaining visual harmony, and adhering to well-structured design systems. Functionality and user experience are always top priorities, shaping every decision I make throughout the design process. Apart from working on tasks alone, I love working together in interdisciplinary teams, accompanied by programmers, strategists and consultants.

My (personal) work is often a reflection of my interests; education, social and cultural topics, arbitrary shop signs, paper receipts and brick patterns.

My dedication to functonality, concept and user experience is at the core of every design choice I make.
