About Frank Spin

Design and development in one hand

I’m Frank Spin. I design and build websites and web apps for teams that need to move quickly without sacrificing quality.

You work directly with me from first direction to launch. Fewer handoffs, clearer decisions. Most collaboration happens through written updates and shared tools, with brief calls when useful.

Profile

What I focus on

Role
Design engineer. I combine design and development so ideas move from concept to production with less noise.
Experience
15+ years across websites, web apps, and digital products for companies, agencies, and SaaS teams.
Approach
Compact projects, clear trade-offs, and systems that stay maintainable after launch.
Core priorities
Typography, performance, and content structures your team can actually use.
Now

I build products alongside client work. Right now I’m working on themes.dev and testing ideas for recurring revenue.

Away from the computer, my focus is family, health, and finishing our new-build home.

Context

I occasionally write on posts and keep an ongoing collection on lists.

If you want the full breakdown of experience, stack, and education, see the resume page. If you want to discuss a new project, go to contact.

Who I work with

I mostly work with teams that need a redesign or a new site, but do not have room for long timelines or too many handoffs. In many cases there is no in-house design capacity, or engineering is already fully booked.

Principles
Simplicity over noise
If something feels unnecessarily complex, we strip it down until the core is clear.
Speed with discipline
Pace matters, but only when the foundation remains clean and maintainable.
Build on patterns
We reuse what already works so your team can ship faster and more consistently.
Practical collaboration
Clear communication, short feedback loops, and decisions tracked in shared tools.
