🎉 One year ago, I registered my very own business: attabird - a Web Design and Webflow development studio.
Before that, I was deep in the UX job hunt for what felt like forever - and honestly, I got discouraged.
But then I thought:
“I’ve been a freelance musician my whole life… this lifestyle suits me. Why not build something of my own?”
That turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
Over the past year, I’ve:
✅ Learned a ton
✅ Collaborated with great clients
✅ Joined a generous and talented Webflow community
✅ Received so much helpful advice right here on LinkedIn
…and somehow, as a brand-new web designer, managed to earn nearly $15,000 from fun, challenging projects in 2025.
Here's to an exciting 2026!
This is really inspiring! I’m in a very similar place right now, launching my own agency, and your story is a big motivation. Congrats and well done 👏
I'm really happy to hear. Let me know if you ever want a chat and hear some thoughts. :)
That’s huge Henrik! Well done for carving out your own way and not giving up 🚂
Thank you so much, Ronan. :)

When working on the landing page for the golf club, our goal was to create an experience that reflects the nature of the sport itself — calm, precise, and intentional. Many sports websites rely on dense layouts and heavy UI patterns, but golf lives in space and rhythm, so the interface needed to feel the same way
