"Capturing light, emotion, and the moments you never want to forget." That line set the tone, and the layout follows it.
The hero is one motion-blurred portrait washed in red. The photographer's name runs across the bottom in a condensed white face, so large the screen cuts it off. The photo keeps its soft focus, and the name still reads first.
Thin grid lines split the page into narrow columns, and the small copy sits justified inside them. The loose photo gets a strict structure to lean on.
A single round red button with an arrow sits right on the letters and marks where to go next.
The heavy condensed white FLORENCE over the red portrait is bold, and keeping the same red across phone, laptop and type tile makes the case study read as one system. Did the red come from the photographer's own work, or was it your call?
I designed a series of editorial-inspired layouts for a fictional typography event and workshop focused on the history of type.

Roots Africa - Editorial Website Design in Figma OVERVIEW A cultural discovery landing page created for Designation’s UI/UX challenge. The brief called for an inviting introduction to African countries, cultural experiences, traditions and stories.
MY ROLE
Visual direction, landing page design, desktop and mobile composition, and Figma handoff.
DESIGN APPROACH
I built the page around three entry points: destinations, experiences and stories. A warm ivory canvas and expressive serif headlines establish an editorial tone. Forest green gives the living-culture section its own setting, while terracotta and gold connect the page’s accents.
DELIVERABLES
Editable desktop and mobile Figma designs; section navigation and primary exploration links; colour tokens, reusable buttons and handoff notes.
