Julia Levitina
Debut Author – Squarespace Website Build
✴ Selected by DesignRush as one of the Best Colourful Web Designs – Jan 2024
Industry: Publishing/Author
Julia Levitina is a phenomenal debut author whose first novel, The Girl from Moscow, will be published by Pantera Press. With strong support from her publisher and agent, Julia needed a website live well before publication, something I always recommend to give SEO a solid head start and build an online presence early.
Working together over several months, we created a website that reflects not only the world of the book but Julia’s own artistic sensibilities. Many of our design decisions were inspired by the Constructivism movement, geometric forms, bold colours, and striking lines, all balanced by warmth, readability, and clarity for her audience.
The result is a bold, beautiful site that gives visitors a clear sense of who Julia is and what her debut novel is all about. The site evolved through a few stages leading up to the book release, which allowed us to stay flexible and responsive to her publisher’s needs.
And I’m thrilled to say it’s not just a site I’m proud of, it’s been recognised too: the project was selected by DesignRush as one of the Best Colourful Web Designs in January 2024. You can read more about the process of the build in my blog.
This build was an absolute joy from beginning to end. Julia is incredibly talented, passionate, and delightful to collaborate with. I feel very lucky to have worked with her.
