Website Redesign Project

This was the capstone project for my Web Design: Principles course with the IDM Program at MCAD (2016). The purpose of this project was to showcase fundamental design principles such as typography, color theory, and grid-based design through the construction of a complete website. For my project, I chose to redesign an existing website that I had previously assembled (2013) for author Gili Estlin Hirsch.

Technologies + Tools:

HTML
CSS
JavaScript / jQuery
Magnific Popup
Adobe Photoshop
