And whether the impact you’re making is for your team, your clients, your community, or the world, there’s no doubt that you’re creating something special and profound with your business.
You’re doing work worth doing, and what you’ve built is beautiful — even if this may not be the first word you’d use to describe it. (Trust me, it IS beautiful!)
This could be the result of cobbled-together designs from over the years. It could be from trying to build things yourself to save time and money (no judgment here!).
Of course, it might also be because you’ve struggled to find someone you really trust to work creatively with your brand.
However you found yourself here, take a deep breath. You’re in the right place!

Hi, I’m Lara Kroeker — a designer with over 20 years of experience crafting beautiful, functional websites!
I’ve worked with brands around the world and across many industries — building sites for products, films, and TV series; e-commerce sites for clothing designers, stores, and record labels; and social impact sites for climate change and human rights projects.
In addition to working with businesses around the world, I also love traveling the world! I love experiencing the arts and music, but most of all I love people. The weirdos, the eccentrics, the crazies – all of them.
I used to fight the idea of doing things a little bit differently, but today I realize that it’s my gift and it’s what I want to pass on in the work I do — in every brand visual ecosystem I create and every project I undertake.
