A year into its existence, this French agency talks to us about awards, remote working and the thriving Paris design scene

Waaark

Antoine Wodniack and Jimmy Raheriarisoa first worked with each other in 2011, and last year they got together as Waaark, eschewing the traditional studio setup and each working in their home cities. Since then they’ve made a name for themselves with bold and innovative websites, picking up a pile of awards along the way. We chatted to Antoine and Jimmy to find out what makes Waaark work.

net: Hello Waaark! Who are you and what are your backgrounds?

AW: I’m Antoine Wodniack, Waaark’s cofounder and developer. I studied web design and development at university while starting as a developer in a local web agency in 2007. I had worked there for four years before I decided to move to full-time freelancing in 2011. I’m now more specialised in front-end development and I work for local and international agencies.

JR: My name is Jimmy Raheriarisoa, Waaark’s co-founder and art director. I’ve been drawing since I was seven and I decided to make a living from this passion. I studied print and web design at Lycée Gutenberg and Lycée Le Corbusier in Illkirch-Graffenstaden, France. I worked in different agencies until, in 2011, I decided to move to full-time freelancing. Freelancing helped me to vary my skills and improve myself in different fields such as motion design, lettering and photography – skills that are very useful in modern web and that I use often.

net: How, why and when did you get together as Waaark?
