This is my biggest client success story of my carreer.
It's hard to capture 3+ years of work into a single use case page.
Though I gave it a try (it's never perfect 😉)
Read the use case here and let me know what you think of the work. Thanks!🤙🏻
Three years into one page is the hard version of a case study. The usual trap is listing every deliverable in order, so I am curious how you picked what to leave out. Reading it now.
I hate to say this but this project is an unforgettable experience for me.
I heard about this competition on Sep 26th from Lovable's X profile. Then I had a sip of redbull and started building this overnight.
I wasn't sure, that it would turnout great or not. But I had hope that it may turn out well.
Today after 17 days, I can proudly say that I built this project single-handedly.
If you are a client looking to build something like this, you can contact me and I will build it for you. TBH I don't care about money just the experience.
Thank you to everyone who cheered on me. 😍❤️
Business Name is Marlowe & Ash Colour Studio (Sarasota, FL)
I turned a solo colourist's DM-and-voicemail booking chaos into a self-serve flow where clients book and pay a deposit in under a minute, while automations handle reminders, rebooking nudges, and waitlist backfill so the owner spends her time on hair, not admin.
My own portfolio site, designed, coded and deployed by me from scratch.
The goal: A portfolio that works as proof of skill on its own. Instead of just listing projects, the site itself had to show how I think about layout, typography, motion and user flow.
What I did:
Concept & positioning: Built the site around one idea, “Tools change. Taste doesn’t.”, presenting branding, social media, UI/UX and web as one practice held to one standard.
UI design: A bold editorial hero, clean typographic hierarchy, and a scroll-driven layout that moves visitors from introduction to work to contact.
Interaction & motion: Animated skill marquees, hover states on project cards, and a clear five-step process section (Discover, Define, Ideate, Design, Test) that walks clients through how I work.
Content structure: Featured case studies linked to Behance, a dedicated section for live websites I’ve shipped, and direct contact links for low-friction enquiries.
Development & deployment: Hand-coded, fully responsive, and deployed on Netlify.
Result: A fast, live portfolio that showcases my work while proving I can take a website from concept to launch on my own.
Love making the portfolio itself proof of craft!
