Digital Portfolio
This is an earlier version of my portfolio. Drawing a portfolio is notoriously one of the most difficult challenges, for me it is always an exercise and an opportunity to experiment with aspects of my work that for one reason or another I cannot experience in various work contexts.

concept
In this version of my portfolio, I tried to give it a technological and futuristic look and feel, through the use of an extended font, accompanied by a monospace font. The typographic rhythm has been set in such a way as to entrust key messages to keywords set to a display font size, with a high contrast with smaller text bodies. The part entrusted to images is important but not predominant, I have also given weight to textual descriptions to narrate the projects shown.
typography
I tried to make functional use of a font that impressed me a lot: it is Klim Type Foundry's Söhne font, in its extended variant. It is a rather difficult font to use in this strong variant, and the use I made of it in all caps made it become the main element of the portfolio because of the shapes it is able to produce.
objectives
For a UX/UI designer, the digital portfolio is never just a container of projects, but a project itself that must be able to communicate the designer's skills and tastes. For me, it is also an opportunity to experiment with solutions that would otherwise remain only at the level of ideas. In addition to showing my work, I have tried to include the distinguishing elements of my work in this portfolio.
Preeminence of typographyding
In this portfolio, the Söhne font from the Klim Type Foundry, in its extended variant, is the main element. What interested me were the shapes that this font is able to generate when used at large sizes.
