I focus my web designs on simplicity and minimalism. The cleaner the design the better, as long as everything works the way it should. At the same time, I incorporate creativity where possible to make web applications both interesting and functional.
Now that most websites are responsive, I use bootstrap for everything. I'll start with basic bootstrap code and edit the components and styles to match your personal preferences. I like to focus on the overall picture first, then specify media queries at the end to make sure everything appears the way it should across various devices.
To add a few finishing touches, I like using either bootstrap's glyphicons or font-awesome for little details such as calendars, books, search or other buttons that could be made more interesting. And for a personal touch, I'm a big fan of using Google fonts so your website will not be generic even if there are others that have a similar layout.
Feel free to contact me to discuss further details. I will create as many different designs as you'd like with unlimited changes and revisions until the layout is perfect or keep working to find the perfect WordPress theme. When design is all set I'll make sure the functionality is dialed in with JavaScript and JQuery, PHP or whatever technologies are ultimately required.
