How should a website reflect the designer?

A website should accurately showcase the designer's work and brand to create a strong and cohesive identity. This involves curating a selection of projects that represent the designer's unique style, skills, and approach to design. By doing so, a designer can communicate their capabilities and values effectively to potential clients or employers.

Effective branding on a website allows visitors to understand who the designer is, what they stand for, and the type of projects they are passionate about. This not only helps in building trust but also ensures that the designer attracts the right kind of clients or job opportunities aligned with their vision. A well-represented portfolio invites engagement and showcases professionalism, making it easier for the audience to connect with the designer's work.

Including unrelated designs or images, multiple unrelated links, or focusing solely on visual effects dilutes the brand message and can confuse the audience. It is vital for a designer’s website to provide clarity and a focused narrative that truly reflects their personal artistic journey.
