// overview

StyleSeat — the beauty-booking marketplace used by stylists, barbers, and estheticians — launched a Creator Network to turn its professionals into paid content creators. Through Breakr, I designed and built the recruitment landing site end to end: the brand direction, the section system, and the photographic art direction that make "get paid to create" land for someone behind the chair.

// what I built

Brand & landing design

Designed the full StyleSeat Creator Network identity and landing experience — a forest-green, lime, and magenta system with editorial display type and a photo-forward hero — then built it in Next.js 16 and Tailwind v4.

A modular section system

Built the site as eight composable, responsive, motion-aware sections: hero, why-join, who-it's-for, how-it-works, real stories, about, FAQ, and a closing call to action.

Photographic art direction

Art-directed the category grid and story reel around real beauty pros — rotating category spotlights, an auto-scrolling story marquee, and per-breakpoint scrims so faces read through the deep green.

Have a product that needs both sharp strategy and someone who can ship it? I'd love to hear about it.
