Dale Chihuly Artist Website
Working with FuseIQ and the Chihuly Studio, I helped redesign the renowned glass artist’s website to serve both as a curated collection of his work, and an educational archive, which can be easily updated by the studio team.
The Artwork page provides an entry into Glass, Works on Paper, and Early Works.

Goal
Create a showcase for the artist’s current and past works which is easily updated by staff members and can serve as an educational resource for aspiring glass artists.
Role
I was the UX and visual designer on a team consisting of two developers, one project manager, and an art director.
Duration
10 months
Outcomes
- Users can now view a wide range of Chihuly works from any device.
- Chihuly Studios staff can decide when, where, and how to showcase the artist’s recent works.
- 150% increase in social media followers since site launch.
User experience planning
I helped the team visualize the site through a series of hand-sketched storyboards.
Visual design
Mobile screens put the emphasis on high quality photography of the artwork.
Desktop and tablet screens allowed for more columns to provide a balanced layout.
