About me

A designer. A dad. A music person.

I’m Yannis, based in Berlin. My work is about making digital products more accessible. Outside of work, there’s family life, a small side project, and a lot of music.

Family life, and müder papa.

Family is a big part of my life. It’s also behind @müderPapa — my side project: an AI-generated character about fatherhood.

Usually, there’s music on.

I love vinyl, good music, and playing the drums. Listening or playing — music is a part of my life beyond the screen.

Little moments, daily life.
