Hello, I'm Georgina.

I'm a web designer with the motto "simple is best". Wondering what I can do for you?

I'm a university graduate and am very fond of presenting my work in digital form. I design my own personal blog along with various other projects such as a photoblog & fan-oriented websites. I enjoy creating minimalist designs. I'm a keen learner and I'm always up for a challenge.

Below are some of my best designs and recent works. If you're interested in working with me, drop me a line!

Strawberry Custard I was after a theme with a bit of red and another lighter colour. I wanted something similar to my current portfolio layout. Naturally I think about colours first but this time I actually thought of the basic structure. This was my first HTML5 build for one of my own projects and incorporated a lot of the new technologies I'd learned. Visit website?

Mok 2.0 This theme was made for a friend who wanted a very simple layout utilising a photograph of his dog as well as his favourite colour, green. This was a modified version of my Strawberry Custard theme. Visit website?

Eyethief For a fan-oriented website, I chose to use this image of one of my favourite musicians, Chris Daymond. I really liked the simple colour palette I created, as it contains red — my favourite colour. I don't often create light-on-dark designs so I enjoyed doing something different with this.

Juliette.nu This was a request from a client who wanted a minimalist, fluid layout for their personal blog, with as few images as possible, some scriptlike fonts, and muted colours of brown/tan and pink/purple. Visit website?

glassfields Since discovering the capabilities of CSS3, I hadn't had much of an opportunity to use it, or I had found that they weren't really suited to the styles I was after. I managed to pull together this layout with more updated CSS technology. Visit website?

Indecisively, me This theme was created for my photoblog/photojournal after being inspired by a very simple black-and-white WordPress theme I saw. I chose to use greys to bring more focus to my posts and photographs, but added just the right amount of interest with decorated dividers and a scriptlike font for the title. Visit website?

A Lonely September This fixed-width layout was created for my friend's blog. He chose a medium blue colour as the main colour but after working with colour palettes, I was able to convince him that the blue, orange and yellow combination was more eye-catching. Creating the requested three columns was a challenge but I managed to get it working wonderfully. Visit website?

A selection of screenshots

These layouts are a selection of my favourites, all of which were coded as WordPress themes. These are simply displayed as screenshots on the website they were on.

Love Is... This was a WordPress theme I created for my personal blog. It revolves around the theme of love, and stemmed from the initial idea of having different quotes appear on a section of the layout each time the page was reloaded.

One Day Son, This Will All Be Yours I was inspired to create this layout after looking at some typography. I was also heavily inspired by the music and lyrics of post-rock band Fightstar and their album One Day Son, This Will All Be Yours.

Made of Star Stuff This WordPress theme was created for a client with a blog named "Made of Star Stuff". The client provided a number of backgrounds and I used one of them for the header and footer. Following the client's requirements, the theme was made fluid to fit any common browser window size.

R & R This layout used one of my first typography pieces. I opted for something bold; using grey to make the colours "pop". I used a line from the song R & R by The Classic Crime; it was a rather spontaneous choice.

Forever's Going To Start Tonight Purple is one of my favourite colours and I wanted to use it for a writing portfolio design. I used a very decorative font in the design, reducing the need for any images. I believe it complemented the focus of the website itself. I kept the design as simple and fuss-free as possible. It utilised a light textured background to add interest.

There is nowhere left to go After taking photographs of one of my favourite musicians, Ben Jorgensen, I felt like designing something simple for my blog. This WordPress theme featured a dynamic sidebar that changed according to different sections of the website. I chose grey for most of the layout to allow the header image to stand out.
