Digital Brand Design - Complete Course

“Thank you so much for taking part in this course and I hope you've enjoyed it. It's now time to work on your project. This could mean finishing the website you started by completing the course tasks or making a brand-new project! Either way, I strongly suggest you take the time to gather inspiration and make a unique project of your own. Make sure to keep track of your progress with different pictures of each step. It'd be great if you could also explain the choices you've made along the way and tell us if you have any doubts. This will help me guide you better if you need advice. Here are the main steps to follow: Branding Discovery Understand who you are and what visual elements will complement that. The Mood Board Research various visual elements and references that work well with your brand.

Wireframing Find out the structure and storytelling of your website.
Visual Exploration and Style Guide Experiment with sketches and define how your website should look and feel, and set up a style guide to keep consistency.

And that's all! I can't wait to see what you've come up with. You can share your work with us so by clicking on "Create your project". Remember to share both the final result and the steps that have led you to them. It would be great if you showed a picture of each step and added a brief explanation about what you have done in each one.

In the meantime, participate in the forum, comment on others' work, and interact with the community. See you there! ”
