Marko Milo is a writer/copywriter focused on writing fiction and
content for websites & video games. His 🖋️ style can be described
as simple, yet deep. For Marko, it was quite important to create a
website that showcases his portfolio. It would help potential
clients learn more about his works, and writing style.
The website was done in WordPress so that Marko can easily add and edit content in the future.
Goals
Here are a few notes I gathered from my talks with Marko for
positioning him as a fun and inspiring writer:
• A clean and professional, yet fun design that reflects his
personal brand and style. Make the website very simple, but make
sure it stands out.
• Include a portfolio section featuring the best works, with
examples of different types of writing (e.g. poems, books, short
stories, etc.).
• Make it easy for visitors to contact him, with a clear call to
action (e.g. a "Mail/Contact" button).
• Represent Marko in a cartoonish way
I drew and animated a simple gif of Marko for the loader to bring
a bit more life to the simple design. The transition
animations/effects are also a bit "bubbly" and "cartoony" as I
found them amusing in contrast to the professional typography and
layout.
The typography I used was
Times Now for headers
and Lora for the body
font as it provided clarity and an overall pleasing reading
experience.
