Product & Motion Designer
I spent almost a decade making things move. Now I'm figuring out how they should work.
Design in action
I bring a mix of creativity and technical know-how to every project. I believe the best results come from working closely together to understand the real 'why' behind a problem, before jumping to solutions.
tavern App
Every week, tabletop RPG players go looking for a group online, and most of them end up in the wrong one. Tavern makes playstyle compatibility visible before the first session, using a scenario-based Vibe Check that turns how you actually play into a visual fingerprint. This case study covers what I assumed, what the data broke, and what I built instead.

About
I'm Maik, a Product & Motion Designer based in Hamburg. Before moving into UX/UI, I spent nearly a decade in motion design — from junior roles to Senior Motion Designer at agencies in Hamburg.
I've learned that animation is more than eye candy, it's a tool to guide the user. That's what drew me to Product Design. I use my background in timing and storytelling to create experiences where every transition has a reason and nothing feels accidental.
Love gaming
Enjoy photography
That's me

Let’s build something that moves people.
I’m currently looking for full-time opportunities in Product Design UI/UX based in Hamburg (or remote). Whether you have a specific role in mind or just want to chat about design systems and micro-interactions – I’d love to hear from you.
