Unleashing Stedelijk Vibes: A Playful Dive into Amsterdam's Art

Hey fellow design aficionados! 🚀 I recently embarked on a design adventure inspired by none other than the magnificent Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam—my absolute favorite art haven. 🎨✨ Let me take you on a joyride through my journey of recreating their website, where pixels met passion!

Learning from the Greats

Ever wondered how recreating a masterpiece can be your secret sauce for learning? Well, that's precisely what I did with the Stedelijk Museum's web design. Learning by doing, right? 🧠💡 Dive into my design journey and discover how a dash of admiration for someone else's genius can ignite your creative sparks.

Mobile Magic: Where Small Screens Tell Big Stories

Swipe right into the mobile version! 📱 I meticulously crafted the Homepage, an Article page, and a 'What's On' page to ensure that the Stedelijk magic translates seamlessly to the palm of your hand. It's not just responsive design; it's a pocket-sized art gallery experience! Aaaand please give it a try, you can find the Figma prototype here.

Desktop Dreams: A Canvas Unfolding on the Big Screen

Lift the curtain on the desktop version! 💻 Behold the grandeur of the same pages designed for mobile, all dancing harmoniously on the big screen. It's like having the museum at your fingertips, minus the velvet ropes and 'Do Not Touch' signs.

Of course, the prototype is also available for this version.

Design Envy: Less is More, Typography is King 👑

Witness envy-inducing design! 🎨 I embraced the envy factor by sticking to a single font, creating a visual symphony where headlines gracefully waltz in a horizontal scroll. It's like a typography ballet—elegant, captivating, and undeniably envy-worthy.

Its DNA… 🧬 simple structure, timeless aesthetics, and a limited color palette—dark grey, crisp white, and a pop of fluorescent green for those irresistible CTAs. It's the Stedelijk essence distilled into every pixel.

In conclusion, this design escapade was a love letter to Stedelijk's visual identity. So, whether you're a design maven, a marketing maestro, or a CEO with a penchant for aesthetics, fasten your seatbelts and enjoy the ride through a digital masterpiece inspired by Amsterdam's art gem. Let's keep the creative flames burning! 🔥✨
