Team
YNM’s core team consists of the studio’s two co-founders Timm Hartmann and Denis Yılmaz as well as Yoannis Jamar. Yoannis joined the team in 2022 after several years of freelance collaboration, working closely with Denis on the development side of projects.
Additionally, we immensely enjoy project-based collaborations. We are fortunate to draw on a network of skilled professionals who help us achieve meaningful results true to our and our clients’ vision.
We value connection
Being a core team of our size allows us to maintain direct communication with our clients, keeping the dialogue personal and flexible.
Why interdisciplinary?
We cover both the design and development needs of projects of all sizes in-house. From the start, both aspects are considered in unison and developed simultaneously, ensuring a smooth transfer from one discipline to the other.
