Captain & Design lead
Hannes is the team captain, his role is to make sure all people involved in the projects feel at ease and can do their best work.
His people skills are definitely his superpowers, he can make users and stakeholders feel relaxed and stimulate collaboration.
During projects he likes to focus on:
He has a big heart for interbellum architecture and Bauhaus furniture. The moment the sun starts shining, you can find him near a fire, baking some delicious pizza.
