Backstory
This year, I took a leap and decided to expand my skills by diving into product and web design. I named this new journey BECOMING. It's an exploration into creating home pages, landing pages, icon designs, and mobile interfaces.
I explored grids, layout, and typography.
For my very first web project, I chose to focus on developing a portfolio website for a female model. This marks the start of my journey into web design! I'm eager to receive your feedback and suggestions as I embark on this creative journey.
Cheers!
