Simple agency landing site design

Project:

Aspect - single-page portfolio and lead-generation website for a brand design agency.

Aspect - single-page portfolio and lead-generation website for a brand design agency.

Project Overview & Design Philosophy

The "Aspect" website is a single-page application (SPA) designed to provide a seamless, scroll-driven narrative. The core philosophy revolves around:

  • Minimalism & Clarity: A clean, uncluttered UI with a strong focus on typography and whitespace. The greyscale palette with selective accent colors (implied by the 3D elements) creates a sophisticated and focused aesthetic.

  • Impactful Visuals: Strategic use of a prominent 3D composition and high-quality mockups to showcase brand design capabilities.

  • Direct Conversion Funnel: Clear calls-to-action (CTAs) strategically placed to guide users towards contact.

Technical Breakdown & Section Analysis

Global Elements: Navigation

  • Component: Sticky Navigation Bar.

  • Elements:

    • "Aspect" Logo (Left-aligned)

    • Hamburger Menu Icon

    • "Contact Us" CTA Button (Right-aligned, primary CTA)

  • Implementation Notes (Framer):

    • Built as a reusable component.

    • position: sticky or Framer's equivalent for persistent visibility.

    • The hamburger icon likely triggers an overlay or drawer menu, built with Framer's interactive states and animations.

    • The "Contact Us" button would use Framer's link functionality to scroll to the contact section.

Section 1: Hero

  • Objective: Immediate brand positioning and primary engagement.

  • Layout: Split-screen tendency; ~50% text, ~50% 3D visual.

  • Key Components:

    • Headline: "Leading Brand Design Agency" - Clear value proposition.

    • CTAs:

      • "Contact Us" (Primary, solid fill) - Scrolls to contact form.

      • "Learn More" (Secondary, outline) - Scrolls to "Who We Are" or "Services."

    • Spline 3D Composition:

      • Content: Laptop displaying "ASPECT", shopping bag, abstract geometric shapes. Grainy texture applied for a tactile feel.

      • Technical Implementation (Spline & Framer):

        • 3D scene created and exported from Spline (likely as a public URL or embedded iframe).

        • Integrated into Framer either via an embed component or Framer's direct Spline integration.

        • Potential Interactivity (Spline): Could be configured for mouse-over effects, subtle animations on scroll, or even camera manipulation, though not explicitly shown.

        • Performance: Spline's web-optimized rendering is crucial here to prevent slow load times. Careful consideration of polygon count and texture sizes.

Section 2: "Who We Are"

  • Objective: Introduce the agency and its expertise.

  • Layout: Asymmetrical two-column layout. Text on the left, image on the right.

  • Key Components:

    • Section Title: "Who we are?"

    • Headline: "Building stronger brand images, creating impressions."

    • Descriptive Text: Provides context and details about the agency's expertise.

    • Visual: Rounded-corner container holding a mockup of cosmetic products. This serves as a subtle portfolio piece, showcasing branding application.

  • Implementation Notes (Framer):

    • Utilizes Framer's layout tools (stacks, grids) for responsive column management.

    • Image container with border-radius.

Section 3: "Services We Provide"

  • Objective: Clearly list core service offerings.

  • Layout: Full-width list format.

  • Key Components:

    • Section Title: "Services we provide"

    • Service Items: (Branding, Digital Marketing, Strategy, Visual Identity)

      • Each item is a text label with a horizontal divider below.

      • Right-aligned circular icon with an arrow, suggesting a link or expansion

  • Implementation Notes (Framer):

    • Likely a vertical stack of custom components, each representing a service item.

    • The icon could be an SVG or a Framer-supported icon library.

    • Hover states could be applied to the service items for subtle interactivity.

Section 4: "Trusted By"

  • Objective: Build credibility through social proof.

  • Layout: Horizontal display of logos.

  • Key Components:

    • Section Title: "Trusted by" (implied, or just above the logos)

    • Logo Placeholders: Faded generic "Logo" placeholders.

  • Implementation Notes (Framer):

    • Likely a horizontal stack or a simple grid.

    • Could be implemented as a scrolling carousel (e.g., using Framer's overflow: scroll with scroll-snap or a dedicated carousel component) for a larger number of logos.

    • The faded effect on placeholders is a design choice, actual logos would be crisp.

Section 5: "Contact Us"

  • Objective: Primary conversion point - lead generation.

  • Layout: Two-column layout. Image on the left, form on the right.

  • Key Components:

    • Section Title: "Contact Us"

    • Contextual Image: Rounded-corner image of a team meeting, adding a human element.

    • Form Fields:

      • Name (Input)

      • Email (Input, type="email")

      • Project Type (Input/Select)

      • Your message... (Textarea)

    • Submit Button: "Submit" (Solid fill, likely disabled state until form is valid, or by design)

  • Implementation Notes (Framer):

    • Framer's built-in form input components.

    • Form submission could be handled via Framer's integrations (e.g., Formspark, Airtable, or a custom backend API call).

    • Basic client-side validation (e.g., required fields, email format) can be configured in Framer.

    • The greyed-out submit button suggests a disabled state or simply a stylistic choice for the mock.

Key Technical Decisions & Advantages

  • Framer as a Core Platform:

    • Rapid Prototyping & Iteration: Framer allows for quick visual building and testing of layouts and interactions.

    • Component Reusability: Sections like the navigation bar, service items, or CTA buttons can be built as components for consistency and efficiency.

    • Built-in Responsiveness: Framer's layout tools (stacks, grids, constraints) simplify the creation of a responsive design that adapts to various screen sizes.

    • Interaction Design: Framer excels at adding micro-interactions, animations, and state changes without complex coding.

  • Spline 3D Integration:

    • High Visual Impact: Provides a modern, engaging element that stands out.

    • Web-Native: Spline outputs are designed for the web, offering relatively good performance if scenes are optimized.

    • Ease of Integration: Embedding Spline scenes into Framer is straightforward.

  • Single-Page Architecture:

    • Fluid User Experience: Content loads once, and navigation is via smooth scrolling.

    • Focused Narrative: Guides the user through a predefined story from introduction to conversion.
