Guðmundur Bjarni Sigurðsson’s Summary

I have worked in the web industry as a designer for over 5 years now.

I have worked with internationally renowned clients like Ikea and DesigneTorget, as well as some of India´s, The Check Republic´s and Iceland´s biggest firms.

I have realized design, and especially web design is way more than making things look pretty. I often compare it to being a baker. The graphics design part of a web site is the cream on the cake, if no attention is payed to the cake itself you get an ugly and dysfunctional cake :)

I wish to deepen my understanding of this medium, that is the internet. Cause the future in web design looks very promising and exciting to me. Who knows what I will be designing and which tools I will be using to do it.

Heres wishing you wellness now.
