Hi there, my name is Ben Seward. I am a multi-disciplinary front-end web designer based in Manchester. I specialise in building beautiful user experiences. Full time frontend developer for In The Style
User Experience Design
At my core I love building intuitive designs based on facts and research. With over 5 years in e-commerce, I bring this experience to every project I undertake.
Every project starts with a brainstorming stage, where I will spend time gathering information on your business, industry and goals. I will then use this information to craft an in depth, project specification to ensure your design project is a success.
Front-end Web Development
I built my first website at aged 12, that was 14 years ago. During the past 14 years I have seen web design trends come and go. You can be sure the HTML5, CSS3 & Javascript that I produce is of high quality, fully browser compatible and will stand the test of time.
I have spend the majority of my career focused within Fashion e-commerce, working with some of the largest brands in the UK. I have invaluable understanding on what is important to users and how they convert.
Wordpress Development
Wordpress is one of the most powerful and flexible platforms ever developed. This is why it is my primary choice when it comes to building content led websites for my clients. The platform is simple to use and gives you control of your own website.
I have over 5 years of experience building custom Wordpress themes for clients, as-well as taking pre-built themes and modifying them to fit the users needs.
Brand Design
A big passion of mine lies in helping develop beautiful brand experiences. I have worked on numerous branding projects to help companies achieve consistant brand guidelines, atomic patterns and a plethora of other branding goals.
With in depth knowledge of design and branding patterns you can ensure your companies reputation is in safe hands.
