Well hello, this is about the 13th time that I opened my text editor to write a post on myself. I thought of all kinds of funny stories and came up with a lot of strange titles and ideas. But just like in good design, less is more. So this is me, introducing myself.

Working at Viewbook
I’ve been working at Viewbook since January this year. Together with Paul I designed the new Viewbook website. Currently I am working on Viewbook 3.0 which is going to be amazing! It is so much fun designing a complex piece of software, the Viewbook way. Everything you come up with is possible. It gets to be tested and redesigned over and over again, until it has got exactly the quality we want it to have. Also the concept of making something you like and to sell it, was new to me. I used to make things that clients wanted. But this new concept has inspired me to create my own designs and sell them.

Family
It may sound cliche, but the fact that Viewbook is owned by 4 brothers, makes the work atmosphere really pleasant. In discussions everyone is on the same level. There is a lot of respect. I feel like I’m becoming more and more part of the family. But maybe that’s because of all the babies these guys produce. I feel like uncle Ronny once again :-)

Thanks for reading, I look forward to keep creating designs for Viewbook and its users.
