Web Design

Sihyunhada Integrated Web Platform

About the project

Sihyunhada is Korea's No.1 portrait brand with 400K+ users. Rapid business growth created two simultaneous challenges: fragmented web architecture causing booking drop-offs, and a major consolidation from 10+ locations into 4 flagship branches requiring a full brand experience redesign. I led both end-to-end as a solo designer.

Design Strategy

One Brand, Two Distinct Experiences

The core design decision was to treat the website as two spaces with opposite purposes — one built for immersion, one built for action. Building both with the same approach would have made both ineffective.

Information Architecture

From Fragmented to Focused

I rebuilt the sitemap from scratch, eliminating redundant pages and consolidating scattered branch information. Migrated to a no-code platform so the internal team could maintain the site without developer dependency.

Brand Experience

Designing for Immersion

Sihyunhada's philosophy — "Everyone has their own color" — needed to be felt, not just read. I designed a scroll-driven narrative using fixed backgrounds, layered animations, and deliberate text pacing. Every interaction was planned and built by hand.

Reservation Experience

Designing for Action

Branch details, photographer profiles, and booking information consolidated into a single view. Decision-making reduced to two steps. Visual noise minimized — every element exists to remove friction.

Outcome

Measurable increase in booking conversion rates and reduction in customer support inquiries. Engineering dependency eliminated — operational costs reduced by 40%. Brand consistency maintained across digital, spatial, and print touchpoints throughout the consolidation.
