How It Works
01
CONTACT

Use the form or email me. Send the work, the goal, and any useful references. I'll reply within a day.

02
CONCEPT

I study what you already have, propose a direction, and make the important decisions visible in Figma before code. You don't need a complete brief to begin.

03
BUILD

Most projects ship in 1–2 weeks once the direction is clear. I build the interface and CMS, then handle performance, SEO, and whatever custom machinery the project needs.

04
LAUNCH & SUPPORT

Every project includes three months of support. I check in with you on what's working, fix what's not, and can continue with ongoing maintenance after that.

Direct throughout · In-person in Rotterdam when useful · One person responsible from concept through support

Portrait of Ollie Míček, freelance web developer in Rotterdam with architecture background

THINK
IN SYSTEMS.
BUILD
IN CODE.

I started in computer science, then moved into architecture and spent years working at studios including H2O in Melbourne, MEI and De Zwarte Hond in Rotterdam. Both fields ask the same questions: what people see, how they move, and what they remember.

Sample Sync began with a broken workflow I saw inside those studios. Then friends needed websites; then their referrals did. Today I work from De Kroon in Rotterdam, close to the designers, photographers, and makers I build for.

One person designs, codes, and stays after launch. No account manager, no outsourced handoff, no layers. I build the framework a practice can grow into, not just the page it launches with.

PHOTO­GRAPHY

Photography keeps me honest. Forces me to look at the world as it is, not how I want it to be. When I'm not at a screen, I'm walking around with a camera.

Buildings, streets, cities. Rotterdam, Tbilisi, Iran, wherever else I end up. Self-published zines — sold about 50 copies internationally via crowdfunding. Available for commissions: architecture, interiors, urban environments.

← Back
FURNI­TURE

Furniture and objects made from recycled paper, metal, and plastic. Two years at Plasticiet — moulds, material testing, finished pieces. Code is clean, but plastic is messy. I like getting my hands dirty.

Also film sets, light installations for collectors, prototypes. Custom work on request.

WRITING

I write about work, travel, and things I've figured out the hard way. Mostly.
