I'm working on something a little different for my portfolio and I'd love some feedback.
I'm doing a complete redesign of my personal portfolio to make it more fun, memorable, and a better reflection of who I am as both a frontend developer and UI/UX designer.
I've been a Pokémon fan for as long as I can remember, so I'm leaning into that inspiration to create an experience that feels like exploring a classic Pokémon game while showcasing my work, case studies, experimentation, and technical skills.
Now I need your help deciding on the direction.
Theme 1
Classic Pokémon Red/Blue inspired with bold colors, badges, and a modern retro feel.
Theme 2
Game Boy inspired with the nostalgic monochrome aesthetic that feels like playing on the original handheld.
I'd go with Theme 2. It feels more vibrant . Looking forward to seeing the final version! 😊 I recently redesigned my portfolio too..would love your thoughts if you get a chance: portfolio link
A thin lime circle tells you which two words this page is about.
The headline sits over a sunset photo of a panel field. The "Get started" and "Explore innovations" buttons share the circle's lime, so the eye moves from the circled words straight to the next step.
Large faded capitals repeat those two words across the sky, faint enough to stay inside the photo. On mobile they break onto two lines, and the headline and button stack above two frosted cards.
Only two words of "Solar Energy for Your Home and Business" are lime, and the whole page follows them.
What happens when a poet picks up a pen and remembers she likes to sketch too:)
I write poetry over at @words.bycm on IG and since Inktober is here, I thought it was time to let that side of me out of its little corner of Instagram.
