A journalist looks for information about the author and her career. A bookstore or a book club needs to locate publications and a simple way to get in touch.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">This reflection determined the website structure, content hierarchy, and calls to action.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Because an effective website does not start by choosing colors or templates. <strong>It starts by understanding what the person arriving at the site needs to find.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>A unique visual identity<\/h2>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Based on the author&#8217;s personality and aesthetic references, a visual identity was developed to reinforce her positioning.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The logo, typography, color palette, and graphic style were crafted with one goal: to convey an elegant, contemporary image with character, capable of coexisting with the different covers of her publications.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The identity was consistently applied to the website and the various graphic materials developed for the project.<\/p>\n<h2>Copywriting to communicate, not just describe<\/h2>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The texts were designed to avoid a website based solely on biographical information and synopses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The homepage needed to help visitors quickly understand the author&#8217;s universe and spark interest in further exploring her publications.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The biography was structured from a more narrative perspective, combining her career, influences, and interests to build a story consistent with her identity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The goal was not simply to provide information, but to <strong>shape a recognizable voice and ensure that every visitor could quickly find what they were looking for<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>A dedicated space for each publication<\/h2>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Instead of concentrating all the novels on a single page, each work has an independent presentation with its cover, synopsis, and specific information.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">This structure improves navigation, makes it easier to share each publication individually, and allows the catalog to be expanded without having to redesign the website in the future.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Mockups and graphic resources were also developed to present the works in a more attractive way that is consistent with the new identity.<\/p>\n<h2>Press and career<\/h2>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Interviews, presentations, and media appearances were organized within a specific section.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">In addition to gathering the author&#8217;s public career, this section makes it easier for journalists, bookstores, and new readers to find more information and contextualize her work without having to look outside the website.<\/p>\n<h2>Result<\/h2>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The result is a website that functions as <strong>the hub of the author&#8217;s digital presence<\/strong>, integrating identity, content, publications, and career within a single system.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">More than just creating a visually attractive page, the project allowed for the transformation of different materials and content into a <strong>creative personal brand that is more coherent, recognizable, and ready to grow with future publications<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>Services provided<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Web strategy and architecture \u00b7 Copywriting \u00b7 Visual identity \u00b7 Logo design \u00b7 Web design and development
