Designing an Editorial-Style Website for Magicpath: A Clean, Story-Driven Experience
This project was created as part of the MagicPath Hackathon in collaboration with Contra. The goal was to design a minimalist, editorial-style portfolio landing page that felt clean, modern, and functional—ideal for showcasing creative work in a story-driven format.
The final site features:
A fully responsive layout tailored for both desktop and mobile
A monochrome color palette that keeps the focus on content
Smooth scroll animations to enhance user flow
Section overlays and accordions to expand on services in a user-friendly way
Before settling on this direction, I experimented with multiple design styles using prompt engineering to test various visual outputs. I ultimately landed on a minimalist approach, powered by the OpenAI design system, to keep the layout clean while allowing the content to breathe.
To showcase the adaptability of the layout, here's a collage featuring the website on mobile, tablet, and desktop screen sizes. This visual highlights how the editorial experience remains clean and consistent across all devices.
The design ensures:
Consistent branding and readability on every screen
Fluid layout adjustments that maintain flow and spacing
Touch-friendly interactions on smaller devices
The site features a fully responsive layout
