Essentially I was acting like the worst client and couldn't settle on a design I liked. With work getting hectic and time at a premium I felt that I just needed to get something done. I decided to just focus on the essentials, a stripped down design, clean, minimal and a strong focus on typography.

Essentially I was acting like the worst client and couldn’t settle on a design I liked. With work getting hectic and time at a premium I felt that I just needed to get something done. I decided to just focus on the essentials, a stripped down design, clean, minimal and a strong focus on typography.


In taking this approach I can experiment with a live evolution of my website. This has many advantages but primarily I can work with live content, I’ll avoid bloating my code, and I’ll avoid wasting too much time in Photoshop; which was my problem before. Hopefully this new way of building a website works out but we’ll see as things progress.
