Chance the Rapper – Landing Page — Wanted to explore a redesign for Chance the Rapper's web site (chanceraps.com). I felt like his site would function better as a single page layout with the ability to stream his music while reading more about him, purchasing tickets and buying merch (more details on design thought below). Over the next few weeks, I am going to continue to publish redesigns of my favorite bands, products, and s...

Homepage - DustinPutnam.com — Some early explorations of the Homepage for my personal portfolio. I wanted to go with something minimal that was simple and clean.

Stay tuned as I continue to share my designs leading up to the launch of my site. View Larger Shot | Follow ...

Update on dustinputnam.com — My portfolio has been in the works for about 6 years. I design it, put it on the shelf while I focus on bigger initiatives, then come back and hate it. Start it over. Get sidetracked. Wash, rinse, repeat. Attached is my most recent design that I am committing to not changing until it makes it's way onto the internet. My site will have case studies of some of my biggest projects, an about page ...

Personal Logo v2 - DustinPutnam.com — While I've been working on my portfolio branding, I've realized that I needed to shift from the original direction. The first version I did felt a little too washed out and stuffy for what I was going for. This new version feels closer to the style and tone I am looking to use (brighter colors, slight gradients, and rounded corners). Stay tuned as I continue to share my designs leading up t...
