What working with me looks like -
landing page, design to live Framer build:
7 days.
Day 0 -
I research your brand and competitors before the call.
You show up to discovery already feeling understood.
Proposal sent the same day.
Day 1 -
Moodboard with you. Lock direction early.
5 minutes here saves 5 hours of wrong design.
Day 2 -
Full copy written before I open Figma.
The words tell you what the layout needs to be.
Not the other way around.
Day 3-4 -
Design. Hero section gets 40% of my focus.
If a visitor doesn't get your product in 8 seconds,
The rest of the page doesn't matter.
Day 5-6 -
Framer build. Animations.
I send a live link - not a PDF, not a screenshot.
You can feel it before it launches.
Day 7 -
Revisions. Launch.
nice work

Awesome!
Most of the work I share early in a project is meant to feel a little uncomfortable.
Not bad, just bold. Pushed further than the brief asked, into territory the client didn’t quite realise they were ready for.
I never go too safe early on. It’s easier to pull things back than it is to start from something that feels soulless.
Here’s a glimpse of some early concepts from the Energy Central project. Some bold, some more editorial, all exploratory.
A lot of this won’t make it into the final brand, but that’s the point. It’s not wasted work – it’s what leads to a stronger result. The kind you wouldn’t arrive at if you played it safe from the start.
This is how a team learns what they’re actually ready to stand behind. The directions you reject are often the ones that lead you to the one you commit to.
looks awesome
