WEBSITES I HAVE CREATED

During the Squarespace Design course, one of the assignments required me to create two websites. For the first website, I designed a custom site focused on healthy habits, combining my passion for health and nutrition with a clean, user-friendly layout that promotes a balanced lifestyle through exercise, nutrition, and mindfulness. For the second website, I chose to recreate the Zara website. I was drawn to Zara's minimalist yet elegant design, particularly its use of large, impactful photos.

Website 1: Healthy Habits

Healthy Habits is a blog that offers practical advice and inspiration on how to lead a healthier life through a balanced approach to exercise, nutrition, and mindfulness. It features articles, tips, and personal insights aimed at helping readers make sustainable lifestyle changes that improve their physical and mental well-being.

Website 2: Zara Remake

I recreated the front page of the Zara website because I love its clean and elegant design. Zara’s minimalist approach, combined with bold, impactful photos, creates a strong visual presence and timeless appeal. The layout makes the fashion feel accessible and relatable while maintaining a sophisticated and modern look.
