My gateway to

Creative coding

Role: Creative Coder & UX Designer

Client: Myself!

Brief:

To code a coherent and engaging webpage to

promote myself and apply itself inline with

accessibility guidelines!

Big Idea:

To use my idiosyncratic style and vibrant copyriting skills

to promote my creative concepts and designs that are

pumped with personality :D

Intial sketches for my webpage, featuring solely four projects. This was before I decided I wanted to make the bold move to go a slight bit more wild with the landing page... (9 Projects in total and counting!)
An original schematic for the working of my web portfolio.

All fonts used were found and coded into the website from Google Fonts (With the back up embeded font Lucida encase the code fails!)
The Hex codes used for the colour on my site are all Web-safe colours cherry picked from the book 'Basics Interactive Design: Interface Design' by Dave Wood. This particularness in terms of colour ensures the colour will appear almost the same on every digital screen!

User-testing
The narrative and copywritting of my site was very important to me, not only in how I explain my work but also in how I present myself as a creative and fun-loving person!
Finally when it came to my landing page, I debated showing fewer projects, however ultimately deciced on presenting a fuller range as it felt more my style. I have many passions and I wanted to display them all! There is still a heirarchy in play, however, with my most creative and concept driven projects landing themselves a space at the top of my page to showcase my creative thinking as well as my skillset.
