Feeling really grateful after a recent client project and wanted to share a quick win.
I’ve been putting a lot of time into improving my design process — getting clearer on goals, simplifying layouts, and tightening up the overall experience. On this last project, that work really paid off: smoother collaboration, cleaner outcome, and a happy client.
Here’s to more projects that let me keep raising the bar on the work I deliver.

Not every project is as easy as it looks.
About a month ago, I got hired through Upwork by Jack, the owner of Alderwood Estate Agents in the UK, to redesign their website from top to bottom.
At first, I thought it would mainly be a website redesign. Then we started adding more features and I realized this was going to be one of the most challenging projects I've worked on.
The biggest challenge was connecting the website with Street CRM so every property would automatically appear on the website with the correct information. Properties for sale, to let, and sold. All had to stay synced with the CRM without any manual work.
The website was built with WordPress and Elementor using a premium template. That meant I had to customize a lot of the template while making sure I didn't break anything else. Honestly, every time I fixed one thing, something else stopped working. 😅
There were many days where I was just searching, testing and trying different solutions until everything finally worked the way we wanted.
One thing I'm really thankful for is Jack. He was patient, professional and trusted me throughout the whole process. Working with clients like him makes difficult projects much easier.
The project took almost a month to complete, but I learned so much from it. Looking back, I'm really proud of what we built together.
Here are some mockups from the final design.
Also, I'd love to hear your stories. Have you ever worked on a project that looked simple at first but turned into something much bigger? Or maybe a bug that kept you awake for days? 😅 Share your experience in the comments.
And if you like the work, a like or a comment would honestly mean a lot. It keeps me motivated to keep learning and building better things. ❤️
It is always great to hear that my clients have found my work useful, and they appreciate it as much as I enjoyed creating it ♥️
Thank you ABI School for the kind words, and I am looking forward to a long collaboration.
