Stardust: A Digital Experience for a Whimsical Literary Café Stardust is a full-featured website I built based on a creative brief for a fictional literary café and bookshop. The project's primary goal was to capture the unique atmosphere of the physical store—a blend of a whimsical, vintage bookshop and a cozy coffee house—and translate it into an immersive online experience.
This project was a fantastic opportunity to focus on user experience (UX) and creative design. I designed and developed the entire website, making sure to align every visual element with the brand's magical and elegant tone. I paid special attention to creating a captivating homepage with a video hero section and intuitive navigation. The site features a visually appealing menu gallery, a searchable book catalog, and a comprehensive events calendar. My work on Stardust allowed me to hone my skills in translating a brand's essence into a functional and beautiful website. It taught me the importance of a cohesive design language and the power of storytelling to create a truly memorable digital experience.
I studied the brand’s palette and logo, then used warm tones, subtle animations, and elegant typography to create a digital space that feels timeless and enchanting.
