Overview
Our team (The Puffins) was tasked with creating a website for our group. We chose to make a cafe website themed around our team name. I was the graphic designer, so my focus was on the design elements. I am happy with my contribution.
Mood board
The logo, color palette, fonts, and most of the reference images were created or picked by me.
Wireframes
Everyone on our team had a hand in the wireframe crafting. Most of my contribution was updating the fonts, tweaking the header and footer, and plugging in images.
Overview
Photovoltaic is an e-commerce website focused on selling PC parts and accessories for gamers looking to upgrade their setups. This is a solo website, so I built everything.
Mood board
I began by gathering images and then built the style around them, including the neon colors on a dark background.
Wireframes
The wireframe was largely unimportant to my project, as I had changed most of everything when creating the website itself.
Overview
Our team (The Puffins) was tasked with creating a website for our client, Gary Ruschman. Gary is both a musician and a composer, so the website was built around his work and his performances. I was once again the graphic designer, so my job was creating the design elements.
Mood board
The fonts, revised color palette, and logo were my main contributions to our moodboard.
Wireframes
Once again, everyone on our team had a hand in creating the wireframe. Most of my contribution was importing images and building the style of the text and image blocks.
Overview
I was tasked with creating a website for my client, Laura. She wanted a hybrid e-commerce and gallery website focused on artwork. I focused on paintings and sculptures throughout history and different cultures when creating this site.
Mood board
I really liked the more muted and moody colors of other art museums, so I chose to theme this website around that feeling they give off.
Wireframes
I ended up sticking to my wireframe fairly closely in terms of layout for this project. I didn't plug in color or images to the wireframe as I felt I did not need it to create this site.
