Vibrant Energies

Process

I started by sketching out a layout of elements such as navigation, logo and content positioning. I thought of usability and information architecture while I was sketching. I made sure the website would be user-friendly and would be organized properly.

After sketching, I created a mockup in Photoshop. I decided to go with a blue color scheme because the psychology of blue represents relaxation and tranquility. I also decided to focus on having "bokeh" bubbles because it was a nice representation of energy.

Then, I started coding and Ruth provided the content to put on the website. I made sure the code was W3C compliant and valid, and the content was organized properly.

Lastly, I put a read me text document in a .zip file with all the website's coding. The read me document gave her instructions on how to update her website, change parts of the content and a basic lesson on HTML.

Testimonial

"Nicole Foster did an amazing job creating my webpage. She is a talented designer with a friendly, but professional manner. Nicole is able to lay out the process clearly, and she patiently explains everything to those of us who find this all a mystery. She took my vague ideas and shaped them into a beautiful, user-friendly site that is already drawing praise from clients. I would definitely work with her again in the future."
