Bit by Bit
Bit by Bit is my well-being toolkit created to be sold by Lush at festivals, focusing on self-confidence and helping people be true their inner selves.
I bought a Galaxy bath bomb, their best-seller, and used some of the patterns and colours that came from it to inform my designs.
I created a range of designs, often sticking to a bright colour palette, as Lush tends to use vibrant colours and I wanted to emulate this. After presenting my ideas to Lush employees, I chose to combine some of them and move forward with that design.
To ensure I had an easy to view colour palette I put my palette into adobe colour to check if it would be user friendly.
For this first iteration of my portfolio, I used mostly pinks and included the Kanji for my name as my logo. However, I felt this didn't represent me as I intended, so I coded another website using this code as a base.
While I felt this website better suited me, I noticed I was only using blues in my design, with no pinks at all.
So, I decided to create this portfolio that you are currently viewing. Instead of coding it myself, I chose to apply the ideas I had learned from this project, along with a similar colour palette, to craft something I felt would better represent me.
I simplified the colour palette, retaining the colours I like and making them much brighter and more prominent.
While the coding is useful and interesting - having previously done this in a computer science class - using only CSS and HTML for a portfolio can be challenging, especially when aiming to include special animations and user interactions.
