crAfting a creative online store

The Client
Elin Angharad is a local creative who makes beautiful handmade leather accessories such as handbags and belts. She wanted me to redesign her website, take product photos and expand her branding beyond her existing logo.
Project goals
Elin wanted a website she could be truly proud of and that she would be excited to share with her customers and in interviews. The goal was to have a modern website that is easy to manage, has an online shop for her products, and tells her story as a maker. She also need to update her product photos using consistent and high quality images to showcase the design of her products. Elin wanted to revise her existing logo, and needed a colour palette and font pairing that worked well for her brand.

The process
I walked Elin through my brand questionnaire to explore her brand's mission, vision and values. We discussed her brand positioning and target audience so we could both be aware of who exactly she wants to attract. I used this information to expand her branding with a colour palette and font pairing. I then built a custom website for her that would be easy to manage, showcased her products well and highlighted the handmade nature of her products.
the outcome
Elin Angharad's new website is professional, mobile responsive and shows off her creative work very effectively. The website features a shop, blog and information about her and the business. The new font pairing and colour scheme was used throughout the site to reflect her personality and complemented the colours of her product range. The new product photography gives a more cohesive and elevated look, for a more engaging customer experience. The warmth of the photos enhances the handmade nature of the products and the images highlight the details of her craftsmanship.
Christina is a pleasure to work with, so efficient, professional and organised. The management on notion made it easy to understand how the project was developing. Thank you for making the website of my dreams!
