About
I'm Maxwell. I run ninetynine digital out of Auckland — a one-person studio focused on design and engineering. I like building things that feel considered, that work well, and that last.
When you work with me, you work with me directly. No layers, no handoffs. Most projects ship in weeks, not months.
Clients tend to come from creative industries, tech, health, and professional services — both here in New Zealand and overseas. Happy to work with anyone who takes craft seriously.

Capabilities
Design
User interface design, design systems, and visual identity. Cohesive digital experiences that resonate with your audience and reflect your brand at every touchpoint.
Development
Web applications built with Next.js, React, and TypeScript. Fast by default, accessible out of the box, easy for you to maintain.
Identity
Brand strategy and visual identity. Logo, type, colour, guidelines — the full system, built to work across every surface.
