The Story

Ester already had a Squarespace site in place. My role was to refine the structure, tighten the content, and make the Magazine experience more functional and user-friendly.

Rather than managing multiple blogs, we used the SquareWebsites universal filter plugin to create one central publishing hub. From there, carefully set-up summary blocks feed her Travel Inspiration and Design Hotels pages with curated content based on tags. This means she only needs to publish in one place, and the rest of the site updates automatically. It’s a smarter, more scalable approach that saves time while keeping the experience consistent for readers.

Across the site, we made her stunning imagery the focus, simplified the layout, added clear callouts for key offerings, and rewrote the contact form so it reflected her process more clearly.

Since the brand was grounded in sensory storytelling, I designed a custom set of icons for Sight, Sound, Smell, Taste, and Touch to further affirm this vision. These appear throughout the site alongside refined microcopy to support the central idea: travel as a fully sensory experience.

This was technically a website project, but the work was strategic at every level. The outcome is more aligned, easier to maintain, and purpose-built for the way Ester works.

Nicole Macdonald – January Made x Creative Process Collective

Hi there! I’m the founder and head architect behind Creative Process Collective, as well as owner and designer over at January Made Design.  You can guarantee I will greet you with an over the top smile and talk your ears off about all things creative, small business and probably pets (everyone loves pets). Serial over-sharer on social media, you’ll be able to find me most days sitting at my trestle table working away with a green tea and surrounded by too many house plants and most likely a cat stretched across my keyboard.
