Stefan Vitasović is a creative web developer with over 10 years of experience, specializing in motion, interactivity and high-performance websites and apps. Currently Lead Creative Developer at 14islands in Stockholm, focusing on projects that combine innovative design with seamless functionality.

"I have been working for years as a Creative Front-End Lead, responsible for developing and maintaining flagship products. My experience involves leading dev teams, ensuring the highest quality of code and design, and mentoring and guiding team members. Since I began freelancing, I have had the opportunity to work with a variety of clients, from startups to larger creative agencies, helping them bring their ideas to life and gaining recognition for my work.

As someone who has the privilege of being a jury member at Awwwards for a number of years, I’ve seen firsthand how impactful great web design can be. My focus is always on celebrating the kind of work that challenges the status quo and truly pushes the boundaries of what's possible but with aesthetics and functionality in mind. It’s always about honoring creativity and innovation while never losing sight of user experience and performance. Some of my current tools of choice include: Vanilla JS, React/Next.js, Motion, SCSS, WebGL/Three.js/R3F, Sanity CMS, Vercel and more.

With a Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering and Computing, my journey has always been deeply rooted in learning and blending the technical expertise with creative problem-solving. Education has shaped how I approach design, allowing me to merge precision with artistry. I’m passionate about continuous learning, always experimenting with new technologies. My side projects often dive into design, graphics and GLSL shaders coding abstract visuals. It’s this constant drive to create, refine and expand my craft that keeps me inspired every day."
