Graphic designer & Full Stack Developer building websites, interfaces and digital experiences.

MACOBITS is a small software and design studio run by MACO.

I build websites, interfaces and digital tools end to end — design, frontend, backend and everything in between, handled by one person who actually cares how it turns out.

Full-stack development, interface design, motion, content and deployment. Enough range to take an idea from a rough sketch to something real and shipped.

I started by rebuilding things I admired. The craft was learning to make them my own.

Things I've built, 2021 to now.

Client software and personal projects, side by side. What they share: clear structure, fast load times, and interfaces that stay out of the way.

Capabilities

Things I can build.

  • Websites

    Clear, fast and carefully designed websites for personal brands, agencies, businesses, products or creative projects.

  • Interfaces

    Landing pages, product screens, galleries, forms, content sections, navigation and layouts that feel intentional.

  • Content structure

    Better organization for pages, sections, posts, case studies and image-heavy content that needs to be easy to browse.

  • Frontend systems

    Reusable components, responsive layouts, animation, interaction details and design systems that stay manageable.

  • Backend support

    APIs, databases, authentication, uploads, secure forms, email flows and server-side logic when the project needs it.

  • AI interactive experiences

    Chat-driven flows, AI characters and generative tools — interfaces where the AI is part of the experience, not bolted on the side.

  • Performance & deployment

    Static-first builds, optimized media, clean routing, SEO basics, redirects, hosting and low-maintenance setups.

  • Visual direction

    Typography, spacing, color, mood, hierarchy and small details that make a digital product feel more complete.

Lab.

The side projects — where I try ideas out, break things, and build for no reason other than wanting to.

  • AI Content Tools

    Experiments with structured prompts, summaries, JSON outputs and AI-assisted workflows.

    AI / Automation

  • Visual Archives

    Interfaces for browsing large sets of images, metadata, categories and collections.

    UX / Databases

  • Functional Prototypes

    Working internal tools — not just mockups — for tracking clients, leads, content and the day-to-day a small team actually runs on.

    Product Design / Internal Tools

  • Game Interfaces

    Small experiments in interaction, feedback, visual systems and playful digital spaces.

    Interaction Design / Gamedev

  • Story Systems

    Narrative structures, character stats, time systems and visual novel experiments.

    Storytelling / System Design

  • Pixel Lab

    Small sprites, retro studies and visual experiments inspired by older digital aesthetics.

From sprites to systems.

  • From games, anime and pixel art to real interfaces.
  • From copying what I loved to designing my own.
  • From single pages to full products and tools.
  • From “how does this work?” to building it myself.
  • From client briefs to personal projects.

It started with the things I was obsessed with as a kid — games, anime, pixel art — and the slow realization that someone actually got to build all of it.

That curiosity turned into a real skillset: full-stack development, interface and visual design, and a stubborn preference for building the whole thing myself instead of handing pieces off.

MACOBITS is where it all comes together now — solid engineering, clear design, and products that feel considered instead of generic.
