Guðmundur Bjarni Sigurðsson - Freelance Web DesignerThat´s enough of talk­ing about myself in the third person.

At first I intended to be an ani­ma­tor and went to design school fully moti­vated to become just that. One thing lead to another and 2 years went by and I was a (almost) fully fledged free­lance web designer with­out ever plan­ning to become one.

This for­tu­nate turn of events has lead me to design web­sites for such peo­ple as Ikea, Life,  Design­tor­get & Ing­var Hel­ga­son. To work with peo­ple from all over the world is very reward­ing. Swe­den, Den­mark, Ice­land, Ger­many, India, USA and Eng­land are some of the coun­tries I have worked with. Well not the coun­try itself, but peo­ple liv­ing there.

I have sucess­fully been a free­lance web designer now for a while and it has given me even more love for this work. I have worked with ad agencies, web developers, diaper makers, pension funds, furniture makers, businiess women & men, friends & family.

I have coded web­sites with great respect to stan­dards, because it makes life eas­ier for every­body. My site even val­i­dates, hon­estly, have a look.

I have three soon to be four won­der­full kids, Matti, Regína and Katrín, and one lovely wife Eydís. I live in Ice­land and work both in my sons room in Keflavík and at var­i­ous cof­fee houses in Keflavík and Reykjavík.

Feel free to con­tact me at any time on any issue like:

  • I need a basic web­site. Sim­ple, yet ele­gant and a remark­able pres­ence on the Internet.”
  • I want to sell stuff online, can you design me through the process?”
  • I need a cor­po­rate web­site with sim­ple easy to use Con­tent Man­age­ment Sys­tem. No spe­cial skills or train­ing needed please”

So here is you action item: Hire me, Con­tact me or Tell me Your Secrets

Inde­pen­dent consultant, India 

Gud­mundur is a world class designer who is not bound by con­ven­tional bound­aries. He always ven­tures the unex­plored side of every theme that comes his way. I have never seen him shy away from work. He is ded­i­cated, dili­gent, fun to work with, reli­able and cre­ative. Gud­mundur has worked on many crit­i­cal projects in the past few years and each one of them have earned him acco­lades!! I would have him lead my cre­ative team any time with­out any hes­i­ta­tions. I wish him the very best in his future endeavors.”

New Media Developer, Lindblad Com­mu­ni­ca­tion — Denmark

I worked with Bjarni dur­ing his intern­ship at Lind­blad Com­mu­ni­ca­tion. Bjarni is noth­ing short of a genius when it comes to cre­ative web design and 3d ani­ma­tions, and I can safely say that the com­pany still prof­its from Bjarni’s amaz­ing work today, almost three years after he trav­eled back to Ice­land(!). On the per­sonal side, Bjarni is a fun and easy going guy of the kind that immidi­ately makes you smile when he enters the room: His humor is known to be blacker than “svarta döden” and he is never afraid to say what oth­ers shy away from. My hopes are I will get to work with Bjarni again, some day. Highly rec­om­mended.

Pre­pare to change, pre­pare to get inspired. Make arrange­ments to open your mind to new ideas being throw at you, and exe­cuted with a mix of pro­fes­sion­al­ism and pas­sion for remark­able design. If you’re ever so priv­i­leged to work with Guð­mundur Bjarni in the future, I’d like you to know that I give him my best rec­om­men­da­tions, and encour­age you to take on the chal­lenge, like I did. I worked with Guð­mundur for 2 years at EC Soft­ware, pri­mar­ily devel­op­ing eCom­merce solu­tions and high-end brand­ing sites. Now that he’s gone free­lance, I’m happy to be able to rec­om­mend him to oth­ers. I will cer­tainly con­tinue to work with Guð­mundur on future projects, pro­fes­sional and per­sonal development.”
