Igor Barbashin · Metro Vancouver

I’m Igor, a designer and developer with 20+ years of experience. Foldable Studio is my independent practice.

I’ve worked with agencies of different sizes and with startups. That experience taught me how the web works, how businesses operate, and how to use modern technology to help them achieve their goals.

I bring that perspective to both sides of a project: the experience your customers see and the tools you need to run the business behind it.

You work directly with me.

We start with what your business needs, agree on a practical scope, and review working versions as the project takes shape. Custom development where it adds value. Established platforms where they make sense.

As your business evolves, we can keep building on that foundation: connecting new tools, improving workflows, and making the next idea work with what’s already there.

Let’s talk about your project
