Graphic design | Platform creator
@mararoos_maradegrootroos@gmail.comDesigning websites and beautiful webpages. As a graphic designer I have a love for typography, color and print, but I like to combine this with my love for coding and motion. I like to see what I can do to fit the purpose of a website best and create a beautiful design too.
