Projects
Damon Barret Roe author website
Branding, website design and development for horror/ fantasy author Damon Barret Roe. The whole theme is built around a universe which is currently in the progress of creation by the writer. It has an emphasis on queer characters, vibrant colors, magic, gold, silver and elements from nature such as moon, ocean and mountains.
The website features an easy to understand architecture which help users to follow through and find content that they are looking for, CTA buttons to order the book, newsletter signup and social media sharing. Also, author blog and forum were implemented for the writer's audience to keep in touch with community and read latest entries by the author. In addition to that, there's a shop page where users can find branded merchandise and visit author's store. An interesting part of the website is the universe page, where one can find different sections about the world including poems, tales, plants and animals.
For branding, we worked on finding the most suitable typography, colors, tone and feel. We built a mood board which helped to extract colors for the brand and find typography which would work together with the overall mood and feel. Furthermore, it helped to find visual web design style which reflected the mood board. Brand features gold and silver colors contrasting against dark backgrounds and occasional splash or purples. Finally, a logo was also designed which was structured around golden ratio grid.
The Chinese Box book website
Together with Gurbinder, we developed a website for his new book – The Chinese Box. The handbook is designed to guide readers through the apocalypse and it will take them on a journey to the four corners of the universe. Client asked for a retro, vintage style which was reflected through the use of typography, colors and textures throughout the website. Also, we kept information architecture simple and easy to understand for users to navigate effortlessly.
Jana Hunter book author website
Jana Hunter is a thriller, fantasy writer who requested a website where she could present her latest book Sleepy Meadows. Jana asked for a simple and clean looking author website where the user could easily navigate around and read her blog entries. Having that in mind I focused on usability and clear design language to deliver a user-friendly experience which would connect the author to her audience.
Rainbow textooks website
Rainbow is a set of primary school children texbooks published by Baltos Lankos – a major book publisher in Lithuania. I built a website where the company presented their products as well as posted their articles on a few different topics including integrated education, project activities, community etc. In addition, I also worked on art direction for website’s illustrations which had to reflect the feeling and visual style of the textbooks.
Event ad, poster and book cover design
Poster and book cover design for Swedish kabbalah campus study materials and ad design for online and social media marketing campaign. With the Sweden's kabbalah campus team, I worked on promoting an event both by print and social media such as facebook and instagram. Illustration design was created from which book cover and poster designs were derived afterwards.
Event landing page and branding
The project goal was to create a landing page and event branding for kabbalah Convention “From Chaos to Harmony”. Landing page was made to present the event and allow participants to purchase tickets. I focused on usability and clearness for the interfaces to deliver an appealing and easy to navigate website. Also, for the branding part, I worked on graphic design for merchandise and the main illustration which dictated the visual appearance and overall feel for event's presentation.
