A website with no fluff can still evoke a feeling.

Rovin sells instruments for underwater research. They didn't need anything flashy or over-the-top. They simply wanted a decent website to showcase all their products.

I still aimed to create an underwater ambiance -- that fits.

Most design processes are slow and messy. Mine is fast and messy.

This is how I tackle most of my projects.

I've been on the butt end of feedback for 8 years now. Which means two things:

1. My ego has been completely humbled
2. I know what effective feedback looks like

Here are 6 things to consider when giving feedback, #designsky.

SaaS this, SaaS that.

Most company websites online are still people selling their services.* These are very straightforward, sometimes personal websites.

Here's the basic landing page structure I use for designing them.

Contra is pushing some job applications my way, but they're not really a good fit.

Still, it's good to get these emails once every couple of days. Keeps Contra top of mind.

43 portfolio views.

But only 1 from Contra. 🙃

👍 Impressions are growing

But
👎 It's not a high number
👎 It's for keywords that are not my main focus

Did I get a job yet through #contra yet? Let's analyze.

🧵
I'm currently still in the 5% of the web designers. Seems high, but as you'll see, it doesn't open up any new opportunities.

Meditation app focused on simplicity.

Simply tap your current mood. Share your thoughts, and the ideal meditation will begin seamlessly.

When you're feeling low, guidance will be more frequent to help identify negative thoughts and prevent being overwhelmed.

The landing page is mostly constrained, but for the process section I added some fun illustrations and color.

It's a mix of illustrations I bought on Yellow Images a couple of years back and in which I remixed some own ideas.

Still need to tweak the copy in some places, but it's looking good.

What do you think? A pair of fresh eyes always help to better a design.

Client wanted a few things different:
- more focus on the firm
- no blacks and preferably less darker colors.
- more fun

What do you think?
