What I Did

From early research through to launch, here's the process used to take Bill Brewster's project from concept to a finished, real-world result.

Research & Discovery

I reviewed Bill’s existing online presence and how his store, podcast and writing were spread across platforms.

Trends & Best Practice

I looked at music, editorial and ecommerce references without losing Bill’s individual character.

Stakeholder & User Input

I shaped the site around the way Bill wanted people to discover his work and recommendations.

Structure & Planning

I brought the store, podcast, writing and social content into one clear website structure.

Wireframes & Concepts

I explored layouts that could handle a large, varied archive without feeling corporate.

Testing & Validation

I checked key journeys and content patterns before committing to the final interface.

High-Fidelity Design

I created a visual system with enough character to suit Bill’s personality and record culture.

Quality & Refinement

I refined responsive behaviour and content presentation across the site before launch.

Launch & Rollout

I brought the different content streams together into a single live digital home.

The Situation

Bill Brewster came to Satch needing a home online that could hold everything together — the Inconvenience Store, his podcast, his writing and his socials — in one place that felt as characterful as he is. [Placeholder — replace via the project's spreadsheet tab.]
