As a user experience designer, one of the most important steps in the design process is identifying the typical users of the product. This can be achieved by creating fictitious characters that consist of stereotypes that align with the behaviour, motivations and interests that then eventually result in understanding what actions these users will take when they arrive to the website, resulting in a considered user journey, with clear objectives stated as call to actions.
I utilise some of the practices of storytelling in the conceptual design process, specifically the use of archetypes to build character profiles.Traditionally in film, tv and plays there are 12 recurrent persona types across the human experience, which I allocate to each persona.
A moodboard is a visual tool that communicates our concepts and visual ideas. It is a well thought out and planned arrangement of photography, design, art, etc. that is intended to evoke or project a particular style or concept. A large part of this relates back to the Euler diagram by initially searching for images that relate to these words.
The look and feel of this design is influenced by Brutalism - a utilitarian aesthetic characterized by its raw appearance and experimentation. The titles within this design are all overstated with a very large font size, font weight and the use of all
caps to highlight the overall message clearly to intensify a level of confidence .
I have collaborated with Ruroc to help launch their new EOX collection, bringing their latest helmet line to life through a cutting-edge website experience. This page is developed with advanced JavaScript animation and 3D assets, designed to showcase the innovative EOX helmets in a visually striking and interactive way. The dynamic motion and seamless animations enhance the storytelling, highlighting the EOX's redefined design that delivers ultimate safety, performance, and comfort.

An immersive journey into experimental art crafted with Javascript. This piece invites participants into a mesmerizing 3D realm where a marble sphere, symbolising introspection, centres a room amidst glowing spheres. As orbs collide and bounce around aimlessly searching for purpose, a commentary on anti-socialmediaism emerges, contrasting the solitary marble's independence with the chaotic thirst for attention. In this digital landscape, the pursuit of individualism stands out as a beacon of beauty, a reminder that conformity leads to losing oneself in the crowd. 'Individualism' offers a thought-provoking exploration of self-discovery and the power of embracing uniqueness, whether experienced in virtual reality or through a browser interface, granting introspection and inspiration.
