Challenges & Solutions
Design to Development Translation
Maybern's team of designers includes some of the best out there. Naturally, the quality of the design was incredibly thoughtful and intentional. It was crucial that the designs were accurately represented in development because each aspect of the design had a purpose.
We discussed the intention behind each design to ensure I completely understood how it should be implemented into the website in a performant manner.
Animation Performance
We used native Webflow Interactions (jquery) where appropriate to keep the website and management of the website as performant and intuitive as possible.
Scalability & Future-proofing
The website was build with a scalable CSS framework, robust use of Webflow's CMS, and extensive documentation to ensure that the website can support Maybern's continued growth.

Final Deliverables
Website Overview
The deliverable for the project was a pixel perfect website with advanced animations and interaction that can scale as Maybern grows. The team can feel confident that their brand is represented well to potential clients, investors, and new hires. They are empowered to make updates to the website internally, which saves their two most valuable resources, time and money, for other important initiatives.
My team's experience working with Zeb to build our first ever marketing website went incredibly well. The designs, including some complex animations and interactions, all turned out amazing.
