Servus!

My name is Pascal Jeschke. I am a freelance digital designer and have my heart set on interface design for websites and web applications. I have been designing websites for more than 20 years now. My work base is also my hometown, Munich, Germany.

I’m focusing on web standards, usability, performance, accessibility, and ethics. I strongly believe that these are the key ingredients for a good user experience. I do also some frontend development (HTML/CSS) for small sized websites.

About PJ

The way I work

I’m a self-taught hands-on UI-Designer working on digital products. I quickly adapt to existing patterns, styles, design libraries, and branding artifacts of both small startups and large corporations. Whenever possible, I avoid reinventing the wheel and prioritize shipping usable products quickly.

I collaborate closely with agile in-house teams or work independently.

Because I do have some profound knowledge of the web basics, I also see myself bridging the gap between design and development.

More about me

I do this job for quite some time now, in 2003 I got my first gig for a website. During this time, I studied sociology and graduated with a German diploma in 2008. The topic of my thesis was already related to my profession and passion: “Knowledge transfer in online communities”.

I enjoy spending much time with my two kids. I am a vegetarian, coffee geek and occasional mountainbiker. I also do some photography. When I spare time, I like used to write articles round about the design topic.
