• World-Class Portfolio: An exceptional portfolio demonstrating mastery of visual design, a keen eye for detail, and a strong point of view. Must showcase high-end, elevated work, preferably with ties to lifestyle, fashion, or home decor brands.
• Technical Mastery: Advanced proficiency in the Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) and expert-level skills in digital design tools such as Sketch and Figma. Hands-on experience with web builders like Shogun is required.
• Deep UI/UX Understanding: A sophisticated understanding of web design and UI/UX principles, with the ability to design intuitive, user-centered digital experiences that also drive business results.
