Hello October! The month of glory, of ripeness, as Henry Ward Beecher says. Don't you agree? 💖

As it happens to be my birthday month, I had to do 3 of these vintage type art projects. (The second one, my favourite, is based on a royalty-free image that I downloaded from @unsplash.) LOVED the drama and lush florals, and I thought it suited this month so perfectly.

Can a website design be TOO creative? Yes, absolutely. The more website designers keep pushing the boundaries, the easier it is to forget that it's a matter of design, and not art.

A website can't just be pretty to look at, or mind-blowingly unique; it needs to actually work, and it needs to work for the intended users.

Design for users. As the site owner, you are NOT the intended user.

Creativity for creativity's sake will only hurt usability. You are making it difficult for people to use the website when you change established parameters for the essentials, like navigation, icons, functionality. ✨Your website shouldn't be a puzzle that people need to solve. ✨

You can be creative in so many other aspects - colours, typography, visual balance, even scrolling or hover effects. Or find creative ways to simplify the journey that a site visitor takes from the moment they land on the homepage to the moment they book a call or purchase a product.

The easier it is to use the website, the more positive their experience will be.

Thoughts? Violent reactions? lol. Let's discuss! 😁

When Toni of Her Kreations asked me to design a website for her business that conveyed drama and opulence, I was only too happy to oblige! With a tagline that reads: 'we turn fantasy into reality,' it was important to showcase her amazing work throughout the website. ✨

Carefully curated images for each page reveal lush floral arrangements, stunning centerpieces, and lots of drama. All this was paired carefully with the website copy by Melody, the brains behind @freshpages.co who really captured the essence of what Toni does. 💖

One of my favourite quotes ever.

I'm a psychologist by training, but I have always loved creating art since I was old enough to hold a pencil. Having grown up in a typical (overachieving) Asian family, it was never an option to take a fine arts degree in college. My parents supported my artistic pursuits but didn't think it was a viable career. lol. I'm not resentful, I did love studying Psychology and found it to be useful even in what I do now.

But it's a passion to create beautiful things that drives me and is at the heart of what I do. It's funny that I ended up building a thriving business out of the very thing that I was conditioned to think was 'just a nice hobby'.

How about you? What longings have you left unattended?
