Dive into the world of Tattoos and get motivated

To create a web design for a publication that posts 4-6 stories per week about various tattoo events, tattoo workshops, and blogs about different tattoo stories. The goal is to create one “long form” story every week and a CMS template for stories every day. As the sole designer, I was responsible for designing the UI, UX, rendering layouts, and creating amazing experiences. I had the opportunity to work with our supervisor, Anton Repponen, who guided us by giving valuable feedback. I created frameworks and prototypes to share the vision, design principles, and content strategy. This helped to conceptualize ideas, gain alignment, and drive decision-making.
