Key design decisions:

The website was developed in Framer, enabling a responsive, mobile-first layout with rich motion assets.

Typography, imagery, and layout were designed to reflect accessible luxury, while ensuring consistent performance across devices. Pixel-perfect details reinforce the premium aesthetic.
