Jsolomon is the creation of NYC-based, Philadelphia native Jesse
moldovsky. This project aims to design and create an artist website
for this emerging young artist using Squarespace as a backend. I
work as both the designer and developer for this entire project.
Project Goals
A contemplative space
The web experience needs to reflect the music of Jsolomun:
personal and reflective. And such, the design should employ a
good use of negative space.
Dynamic layout
The layout should utilize a grid-based experience that is well
structured but interesting, all while utilizing animation to
engage and retain user's attention.
Squarespace Powered
The website was requested to be built upon Squarespace
interface. As such, I develop a custom theme based on
Squarespace render engine to create a robust and natural user
experience.
This was a really interesting project for me because I get to work
with the client through the entire process: from conception to
deployment. And figuring out how Squarespace templating work is
something new for me to learn as a developer.
