Web Design Approach
When approaching the design for a website, I start by getting to know the client's needs and goals. I listen to their ideas and vision, and then I begin to brainstorm and research to get a better understanding of their target audience and industry. Next, I create a rough outline of the website's structure and layout, including the key pages and features that will be included.I also develop a visual concept, selecting colors, fonts, and images that fit the client's brand and style. From there, I move on to designing the individual pages, including the homepage, about page, and contact page.
