Founders: "Just make it pretty and fast."
That's what they asked for..
We ignored them and built something that converts instead.
Thank you soo much

Designed the website for Dovora — an agency that builds businesses for creators, not brand deals. "We don't represent brands, we don't split focus" is basically the whole pitch, and I wanted the site to feel just as uncompromising.
So no polished stock creator-economy visuals. The hero is a wall of real streamer/podcast footage arranged in overlapping diamonds and rounded frames — actual creators, mid-stream, mid-laugh — with a glowing gradient orb behind bold "WE BUILD CREATOR BUSINESSES" type. It reads more like a highlight reel than a landing page, which felt right for an audience that lives on camera.
The second section flips the energy completely — dark, minimal, almost aggressive typography ("BUILT EXCLUSIVELY FOR CREATORS. FULL STOP.") paired with huge chrome-and-neon 3D letterforms spelling out CREATORS. It's loud in a completely different way than the hero, and that contrast is intentional — this isn't a buttoned-up agency deck, it's built for people who make content for a living.
Genuinely fun brief to lean all the way into.
PrettyClever designed the Maximize website and hired me to build it 1:1 in Framer. Check it out below.
When we work with founders, companies who sell to bigger companies, the same thing comes up.
The product or service is good. But the deck looks like one company, the site looks like another, and the copy says the same sentence every AI company says.
With a startup client that doesn't cost you much. One founder tries it and decides.
Inside a bigger company it's five people, and most of them never speak to you. Someone in procurement, someone in security, a VP who hasn't heard your name. They pass your deck and your site around and decide without you in the room.
So we start with the brand and build the site on top of it, so both say the same thing.
