This project involved crafting a captivating portfolio website for Studio Recall, a company specializing in architectural photography.

Here's a breakdown of the process:

Design

Figma: I meticulously designed the landing page in Figma, focusing on a visually stunning layout that showcases Studio Recall's exceptional portfolio. The design prioritized a clear information hierarchy, compelling calls to action, and a user-friendly experience.

Development

Framer: Leveraging Framer's capabilities, I brought the Figma design to life, ensuring the landing page functioned flawlessly across various screen sizes (mobile, tablet, desktop). This responsive design approach guarantees a seamless user experience for potential clients visiting Studio Recall's website.

Featured projects

The Featured Section is built using a CMS collection list in Framer to quickly present the most recent and best work first which later opens up the project page from the explore more works button.

Using the components Default, hover states are built into these buttons to display more info about the project title and the architect's names

Project Page

The Project page is meticulously designed using the CMS features in Framer so that the client can showcase important photos larger than the others. A hierarchy of Hero, Featured photo and a footer is set up to present all projects.

Navigation

The navigation bar and its links are built inspired by the company's logo to mimic the pulsating recording red dot.

Other pages built include -

Info page to host all contact links, about the photographer and list clients.

Awards page to house all awards, honourable mentions and publications.

Strategy

All of this came into synergy because of an exhaustive mood board created with the client to include all their likes, dislikes, preferences, and inspiration from other websites and external sources along with gathering a detailed understanding of competitors in the field. The mood board also serves as the north star throughout the process to make design decisions and not veer off-course.

This project exemplifies my ability to translate design vision into a functional and visually appealing landing page. I understood the client's requirements by working on an exhaustive moodboardBy combining design expertise in Figma and development proficiency in Framer, I delivered a solution that effectively strengthened Studio Recall's online presence.
