In this post, I wanted to talk about the homepage of my portfolio website, but I decided to touch on another topic instead.
Most of the projects I’ve worked on were created in close collaboration with Nicolas Jey, and each project with him has always been a challenge of varying complexity.
But my own website, which I both designed and developed, is simultaneously satisfying and frustrating. My perspective as a developer simply didn’t allow me to go beyond certain boundaries, resulting in a site that I like both visually and technically, yet I’m still not fully satisfied.

If websites came with a care label, what would yours say? 🤔
I've been thinking about how micrographics, those small labels usually found on packaging or clothing tags, could translate to the web.
As web designers and developers, we know there is *so* much invisible thinking behind a site: structure, performance, accessibility, content systems… and we rarely see it. 👀
As builders, we think about these things constantly, but users rarely see them. Maybe there’s value in making the craft more legible.
What do you guys think? 💭
This is such a fun concept. The care label idea makes all that invisible work visible in a really clever way. "Reduced motion safe" and "92 Lighthouse" on a tag would tell you so much about how thoughtfully a site was built. Would love to see this become a real thing designers actually share with clients.
A build I was subcontracted for in 2024: translating a Photoshop design into a working Webflow site.
Our only roadblock was the client's indecision. While working to nail down the interaction design, they decided to rebrand, which changed the project scope.
Excited to share the Revo Padel Club project! 🎾 We crafted a full brand identity, designed social media templates, and built an intuitive website UI/UX—everything to level up their club’s digital presence.
Nice work, you are best!
