Project case study
Rebuilding the Site Around the Work
Why the portfolio stopped being a list of pages and started acting more like a front page for the work that actually matters.
The old version had energy, not shape
My earlier site had enough personality to prove I cared, but not enough structure to help anyone understand what I was actually good at.
It behaved like a collection of experiments instead of a portfolio with a point of view.
What the rewrite aimed for
The rebuild was not really about looking more professional in the generic sense. It was about making the work readable.
- less noise in core navigation
- a stronger front page for projects and linked sites
- a structure that still makes sense six months from now
