Summary
Website design for Village Porto de Galinhas, a beachfront resort on one of the most famous beaches in Brazil, renowned for its warm, crystal-clear waters. The goal was to create a UI inspired by local craftsmanship that would load fast, perform well on mobile, and bring the resort's personality to the screen.
UI Design and UX Design project intro — Village Porto de Galinhas logo and colorful brand mark over vibrant aerial beach photography from Porto de Galinhas showing crystal-clear turquoise waters and a traditional jangada sailboat with a red sail.

Problem

Village Porto de Galinhas needed a website that captured the hotel's personality and its connection to the local culture of Porto de Galinhas. The challenge was to create a visually distinctive design inspired by regional craftsmanship while keeping the experience fast, responsive, and easy to use on mobile.

Solution

The visual design drew from local craftsmanship, using organic shapes and colors that felt native to the destination. Performance was a priority from the start, with fast loading and clean mobile navigation built in alongside the visual work.

The interface showcased the hotel's colorful architecture, tropical setting, and beachfront experience through strong photography and visual detail. Navigation was kept simple and direct, making it easy for visitors to find accommodations, amenities, and destination information.

Results

The site gave Village Porto de Galinhas a visual presence that felt rooted in local culture while performing well on mobile. Visitors could navigate the resort's offerings quickly, with strong imagery carrying the atmosphere of the destination.
