Process overview
Research
I began the design process by considering the audience I wanted to attract—those who appreciate quirky, handmade, and bold art. I researched what works in the ecommerce space for unique, custom art brands and gathered feedback from friends and fellow artists to ensure the website would be user-friendly and visually appealing.
Design strategy
The website needed to be a direct reflection of False Alarm Art’s personality: colorful, irreverent, and fun. I focused on keeping the design simple yet bold, allowing my art to take center stage. I used a playful color palette and large, clear visuals to create an easy-to-navigate site that speaks to the unique nature of the products. The user experience was prioritized to make browsing and shopping straightforward and enjoyable.
Execution
Using a combination of my design expertise and website building tools, I developed the site with easy-to-use features such as product sorting options, a streamlined checkout system, and an engaging homepage. I also integrated a blog to keep visitors updated with new creations, behind-the-scenes insights, and upcoming sales. Throughout the design, I focused on ensuring responsiveness and mobile optimization.
The final product
The final website features a vibrant, modern layout that brings the False Alarm Art brand to life. It showcases the brand’s fun and quirky artwork while providing clear navigation and product categories. The user journey—from browsing to purchasing—was simplified to create an enjoyable experience. The design is cohesive and visually engaging, providing an interactive space where customers can learn more about the art, view detailed product pages, and easily make a purchase.
