My Role
Website and Brand Designer
4 months (2024)
From prestige built on word-of-mouth to a refined digital presence
✧ Background
Culinary Excellence is a luxury catering and event planning brand built on reputation and word-of-mouth.
To broaden its reach and engage a younger audience, I redesigned the website with a more user-focused and sophisticated experience, aiming to strengthen the brand’s presence and drive sales.

✧ Redesign Process
✴︎ Moodboard
✴︎ Wireframes
I started the redesign by crafting a moodboard to capture the brand’s luxury, sophistication, and modern aesthetic. It guided choices for color palettes, typography, imagery, and overall tone.
Next, I created wireframes to structure the layout and visual hierarchy, focusing on intuitive navigation, clear content flow, and responsive design. These low-fidelity sketches allowed me to iterate quickly before moving to high-fidelity designs.
