Welcome

I am Den Talalá, a digital designer enjoying life in the city of Amster­dam. I record podcasts, make music, design apps, craft websites, and take pictures.

This website is my safe harbour in the internet. Feel free to take a look around and to follow me on social media:

Profession

I admire things that were made to work cleverly. That’s why many years ago I became a designer.

Started in freelance, learned to deliver in an agency, designed first product in my hometown’s company, gone through the mill at a search giant, art-directed startups and built several design teams. Got my multi­disciplinary experience while researching, designing, testing, managing, art-directing, and launching products for millions.

Traveling

My comfort zone is spreaded across the globe. I love to find myself in new places, to learn cultures, to eat new food, and to experience adventures while traveling.

Photo­graphy

It’s not so easy to capture a memorable moment of life the unordinary way. Shooting as a beginner is fun enough for me. However, I’m always learning.

I’m generally picky about what I give a like so you’re doing something right!

People

I’ve met people from around the world who are my source of inspiration and I hope to meet more in the future to learn something new from them. Thank you all. This list is for my own motivation.
