speaking of building websites that reflect the owner

Yesterday I launched Willow’s redesigned website and I was probably just as excited as she was about it! I totally love the design, and how it really reflects her new role as a comic writer, but still maintains an Eastern and Islamic feel.

Interestingly enough, this was actually the first draft that I sent to Willow (with a few improvements of course), and she loved it! I knew she wanted a fusion of the things that she was passionate about, and she did a great job of giving me all the information I needed, but still initially I was very un-inspired.

This is an excellent example of how changing your perspective on something can make all the difference… almost literally! My first attempt at this was with the left vertical bar being horizontal, and it was plain… nothing to get excited about… but once I flipped the entire layout, I felt it worked much better and I suddenly got that much needed inspiration!
