Lifelong timeline in a digital format

Kevin McPhee needed to create a website highlighting his career highlights while also showing off his creative vision. Drawing inspiration from classic design works, our goal was to create an interactive timeline that was also responsive.

Analyzing Kevin’s design layouts for print and industrial projects provided insights into his approach to visual storytelling. We interpreted Kevin’s perceptions of light, shape, and texture, translating them into design elements that infused the website with his distinctive visual language. From the totality of his work I was able to create surveys of a color scheme and see coonsistencies in how he views light, shape, texture, and composition. These became the foundation and the building blocks for the design that created the disticntive visual language.


In our exploration, we embraced the challenge of incorporating interactive elements into the website, pushing the boundaries of technological innovation while enhancing the user experience. Additionally, we empowered Kevin to curate and update his portfolio effortlessly by designing the website to be fully editable and manageable. This process required meticulous attention to detail and a deep appreciation for design and art theory, ensuring that every aspect of the website reflected Kevin's creative vision and personality. In essence, the website stands as a testament to Kevin’s talent, creativity, and the careful consideration of design principles, offering visitors an immersive and inspiring digital experience.
