How to Design a Website For a Studio!
Magic transpires when designers unleash their true potential. Studio’s website is a platform where designers showcases part of themselves; the culture, the values and most importantly the capabilities. Since constraints are close to none, the thrill is also like none other and experimenting with otherwise distant ideas turn into a reality.
Every designer here is a king; the platform is a home ground where every inch is known and every control in own hands. With power comes responsibility and every designer considers the below mentioned pointers by Lollypop Studio to ensure they set the benchmark:
01. Culture is Design
Culture is beautiful, it adds so many colours to human existence and at the same time provides a uniqueness to a group of people. Similarly, every studio has its own culture, its own way of doing things, its own set of values and ethos. Design can visually communicate the studios vibes with visitors as soon as they get on the platform. Good design embeds culture and it flows in design so seamlessly, so tastefully, that it triggers the emotions within everyone who visit the site and sets that subconscious connection which otherwise is not possible.

02. Thrive on Design Wizardry
Design unicorns are the most sought after and its true. But, every studio has a niche that they excel in and showing off the core is a great idea. This could probably ease the efforts required in realizing the dream that every studio aspires to such as big brands, kickass ideas and cool designs. Paint the bigger picture, of course; but always hit the right chords.

03. Experiment Leads to Innovation
Being at the forefront of creativity and usability, designers need to experiment with the latest trends and technology that fall in line with the studio. It can be completely crazy and mind-blowing concepts with elements never heard or seen; however, these elements should not confuse users or site visitors. Every element should be meaningful yet novice and should fall together like pieces of an intriguing puzzle. From micro-interactions to illustrations to layout to navigation, everything can be experimented with and mark an era of new design language. Iterating and staying abreast with technological and design change offers an advantage and lends an upper hand when selling to clients.
