Hello.
Illustrations, lettering experiments, logos and concepts created by independent designer, illustrator and overall curious creative John Patrick.
Ligature Labs
An agency website with an unusual use of stills and graphics to showcase the unique character in a tech-y kind of way. This was the original concept for Sedaiia under a different name, different activities but same logo: a webdesign agency specialized in Squarespace advice, development and Acuity implementation. Which is no longer our main activity yet we still offer Squarespace advice at request and are available for retainer offers within the Squarespace system.
TattooFolio
A Squarespace template for specifically tattoo artists. This template was optimized in a way to lead visitors and possible clients into an organic booking process with automations running in the background: automated webform confirmations, appointment bookings, reminders, online deposit collection and more.
John Patrick Tattoos
Online portfolio for contemporary tattoo artist John Patrick. A very minimal Squarespace website where the portfolio speaks for itself and the rest actually looks very boring. The backend was where it happened: automated systems so the focus was on the actual creative process that is involved with tattooing. Automated confirmations when clients filled in the webform. Template email conversations with online booking links and online deposit collection. Automated customer reference folders and more.
