We have a new guest presentation by the amazing Kate Britton from The Mudroom Design!
Basically, I gave her a brief that wasn’t fully polished by a proper brand designer, and asked her how she would elevate it to a beautiful website.
This is a preview of the full presentation that is featured on The Cypher.

Summary
Kate walks us through all the things she does to make a real-life-client-level brief (meaning lacking in polish) into a great looking website. She showed us some great tips on what she does to flesh everything out without compromising on quality.
Amazing talk, and helpful tips! It gave me some tips on making things look/feel better!
Thanks Kate!
