The project

Overview

Development of a tailor-made website for children's illustrator and author Gilbert Legrand, known for his artistic compositions combining drawings, photographs and everyday objects. The objective of the project was to design a complete platform allowing the presentation of his works, his exhibitions and his creative universe in an immersive and professional manner.

The starting point

The challenge

The artist did not have a structured site capable of effectively promoting his creations and centralizing information related to his exhibitions.

« It was necessary to design a complete solution that was aesthetic, efficient and scalable. »

Absence of a structured site to promote the works
Difficulty managing exhibitions and events
Lack of administration tool
Need for an immersive user experience
Weak digital presence of the artist

I created a site entirely developed from scratch, integrating advanced content management, a complete back office and interactive features adapted to the artistic universe of the illustrator.
