Web Design
I started doing webdesign when I learned PHP in 2003. Since then I’ve learned to use web-technologies like: CSS, Javascript, XML, VRML, OWL-RDF(S), Flex and AJAX, but more importantly I’ve learned how to make a website look good. My designs tend to be minimalistic, yet elegant.
Below you’ll find a selection of the sites I’ve created over the years.
Welcome to my site,
Martijn Brakenhoff
