RECENT WORK
BESPOKE HOTEL WEBSITE
Caserio del Mirador
This was my biggest and most enjoyable project to date – a website for a boutique hotel offering family-friendly holidays.
The clients were frustrated with their outdated, problematic site, which didn’t reflect their focus on family holidays. They felt they had a story to tell but weren’t sure how to bring it to life online. We collaborated closely to fine-tune the design before moving onto the development stage.
The final result is a 17-page site with booking functionality via the Motopress plugin. I continue to support them with SEO and content updates, including videos and photos of their recent refurb.
WEBSITE REDESIGN
The Wedding Man
The wedding man was a one page website which involved never-ending scrolling and low quality images to try to reduce load time.
Working closely with the client we came up with the new design and architecture of the website to include a wealth of information. Since the site was launched in 2021 we have continued to work together adding further material and additional functionality.
Most of the client’s business comes via his website, many of his clients have mentioned how much they love his site.
BESPOKE WEBSITE
Greensman Spain
The client approached me with a clear concept for a website to showcase their work. We collaborated closely to develop a design that reflected their aesthetic preferences while meeting functional needs.
In 2023, we expanded the site with new project content and refined the design. In 2024, we carried out a broader design refresh, updating the overall look and adding additional projects.
Originally launched as a bilingual site (English/Spanish), the client opted in 2024 to streamline content by focusing solely on English.
WEBSITE REDESIGN
Man with voice
The client came to me as their website was not responsive, on mobile the header text was cut in half and the projects did not display correctly. They also wanted to change the layout of the portfolio, and make some design changes.
I rebuilt the site from scratch taking advantage of the existing content. We will soon add an additional section for a new service the client is offering.
BESPOKE WEBSITE
Oarad Ltd
Oarad is a multi-disciplinary collective of architects, designers, consultants and experts dedicated to sustainable development. We created the website from scratch, with several design proposals in Photoshop before starting to build the website online.
This project also included all the content creation and copywriting with the help of AI.
WEBSITE REDESIGN
Clever Pants Productions
This client approached me as they weren’t happy with the design done by an agency and wanted to work with someone who would listen to their creative input.
I have done several redesigns for their website offering educational theatre in English. When COVID hit they were forced to stop live theatre and created 3 online videos of their shows. We made an online flyer sending users directly to vimeo. I created the posters for vimeo and and graphic material for their youtube page.
In 2024 we redesigned the site to include the original live theatre shows in schools and a new page for educational theatre for families.
BESPOKE WEBSITE
Huertocity
The client approached me because their site was under-performing following a cyber attack. The original design was broken and they needed a reliable, stress-free solution. While they wanted to keep their existing content, they were open to a full redesign.
We tackled a number of issues, including an oversized header slider that was slowing down load times. We also restructured parts of the site to improve overall user experience.
The client had a solid understanding of WordPress and was keen to stay hands-on, so I designed and built the core pages, creating flexible templates for them to easily add content as needed.
To ensure long-term stability, I set the site up with regular backups and added performance and security plugins — giving the client peace of mind and a much more robust setup than before.
WEBSITE ON LEARNWORLDS PLATFORM
Performing Ideas
The client approached me in 2021 to create a website for his company on the Learnworlds online course platform.
I also created course templates, the graphics for his App (PI Academy) and email marketing campaigns using automated email strings to send weekly follow up emails to students who attend his courses.
In 2023 we worked together to add a live workshop catalogue to the site.
