Relaunching a Copywriter’s Portfolio Website

This was the second time building Stephen’s site, the first being a couple of years ago. Every ad-man needs a good book, and these days they’re digital. We upgraded him to a responsive portfolio a couple of months ago, starting with some beautiful comps designed by my friend Andy Stewart (andystew.com).

I took some of Andy’s Photoshop treatments and converted them to CSS,  elaborating on his design so it would work at nearly any width. I’m a firm believer in a flexible grid that doesn’t assume breakpoints. This is especially true on tablets, which come in a variety of sizes and are one of the most popular devices for viewing portfolios. I was surprised, embarrassingly, to see that the majority of traffic to my own site came from mobile devices.

I hope this site serves Stephen well, I’m certainly happy with the end result.
