No ninjas or rockstars here but a web designer, a front-end guy and a WordPress developer. Those are some of the things people tend to call me. Basically I'm a designer who thinks and executes in code.
I help companies, startups and individuals to make their websites and webshops better, not just prettier. In order to do that I believe it's important to focus on speed, content and clarity. I'm not big on parallax effects, animations and things of that nature. Instead I prefer to present information as clearly and directly as possible.
Thus my clients know me as someone who is trustworthy, works fast, loves simplicity and doesn't compromise for short-term hacks.
To clarify here are some of the services that I'm typically hired for:
- Web / user interface design
- Responsive design
- Front-end development
- Prototype / MVP development
- Kirby and WordPress development
- MeteorJS development

Here's what my customers say about working with me:
"Lauri Liimatta is a consummate professional. His deeply aesthetic sense of design, attention to detail, and informed understanding of the back-end issues of website design and maintenance made him a pleasure to work with."
Nora Sweeny, Outreach Strategist, Stanford Product Realization Lab, USA
"We are very happy to work with Lauri Liimatta as the developer of our website since early 2014. He communicates seamlessly together with the designer and the responsible manager for the website and he is fully embedded in our company workflows and tools like Git and Jira. The results from Lauri are always on time and come in a very high quality. I would hire Lauri as an employee right away."
Frank Blome, CEO ProjectWizards GmbH, Germany
"Lauri has an excellent eye for design and on top of that is a very good front end developer. When working with Gekko he developed large parts of the online user interface and was the main architect of our easy to use design. He was a hard working and quick developer that got the job done. We use Django, Django REST and Angular as frameworks and Lauri understood and integrated his work very well with our way of working. Based on our experience, I would recommend Lauri for any design/front-end developer role."
Joris Docter, CEO Gekko B.V, The Netherlands
"Lauri is very quick in understanding what we need. By hiring Lauri, we immediately added a tremendous amount of responsive web development knowledge to our team. Lauri has styled our customer portal to my developers' satisfaction."
Pieter Jansen, Co-founder, Cybersprint B.V, The Netherlands
"Lauri has a great feel for what the client wants. He knows which styles are appropriate for a project, and is very creative using them. He delivers complete layouts very quickly, and has a keen eye for perfection."
Marten Sytema, Founder Sytematic Software, The Netherlands
"Working with Lauri has been a breeze. It's easy to be a satisfied customer, when everything is delivered as ordered and on time. This is how things should go with everyone else too!"
