The Studio 02
Suburbanization
In 2020, after 10 years of inhabiting various co-working spaces, I finally decided (perfectly timed a month before the world fell into pieces) to relocate the studio to my hometown Drensteinfurt located 20 km south of Münster. Or to be exact: 172 m from my house, which adds almost one workday of time to my business instead of (other drivers) driving (me nuts). That's 954 l diesel per year. And one car less on the road.
Small but excellent
So now I reside at a less fancy address but enjoy the view of the historic town square, close to the most beautiful nature the Münsterland has to offer. And I finally have my own little place, light-flooded and full of books, open 24/7.
About me 03
Most notably I am an outdoor and science fiction lover, avid iphoneographer, guitarist, chocolate-labrador-owner, husband and dad. But I have also spent 25+ years in the industry as an intern, employee, employer, freelancer, business owner and entrepreneur wearing many different hats. So if there is something like a generalist that probably suitably describes my background.
Although I nowadays focus on design and development my clients benefit from my understanding of the various industry fields and perspectives.
I'm the wrong guy if you:
- want ties / black turtlenecks, project managers and good looking young folks that pick up the phone
- need anything tomorrow and cheap
- prefer to be resistant to advice
I'm the right guy if you:
- want a respectful and preferably long-term business relationship
- need 25+ years industry experience and a network of experts for special ops
- prefer dead simple, meaningful and economic solutions that just work (also known as unfuckwithable)

Twelve things I have enjoyed recently. By the way, you may want to check out my n2 Spotify playlist. Just don't expect to hear “lofi beats stuff all designers are listening to”. I am a rock guy after all. Well, you will probably find some 80s synth weirdness, sorry.
