Website Designer (Framer) – Mediterranean Café + Yoga Brand

Project Type: Fixed Price (with opportunity for ongoing work) About Lemondrop Lemondrop is not just a café. It's a Mediterranean-inspired destination that combines a specialty café, yoga studio, aerial studio, community events, and beautiful design into one experience. We're creating a brand that feels more like a boutique hotel or lifestyle magazine than a traditional fitness studio. The website should tell a story—not simply display information. Think: Slow scrolling Beautiful typography Editorial layouts Cinematic visuals Warm Mediterranean aesthetic Emotional storytelling If your work looks like Apple, Airbnb, Aesop, Patagonia, Aman Resorts, or boutique creative agencies, you'll probably enjoy this project. What I'm Looking For I want someone who can work with me, not simply build pages I hand over. I have a very clear vision and thousands of ideas, sketches, inspiration images, branding concepts, floor plans, menus, and photography. I'm looking for a creative partner who can help organize those ideas into a world-class website. This is a collaborative design project. Platform Framer (preferred) I'm learning Framer myself and would like someone willing to build alongside me so I can continue editing the website after launch. Deliverables The website should include: Home Our Story Café Yoga Aerial Memberships Events Private Events Teacher Training Visit Us Contact The homepage should be highly visual and story-driven. Design Direction Mediterranean Warm minimalism European café Natural stone Travertine Roman plaster Soft olive greens Cream tones Bronze accents Linen textures Editorial typography Slow luxury Organic movement The goal is for visitors to feel something before they even read the words. Features I'm interested in: Smooth scrolling Subtle animations Video backgrounds Interactive storytelling Image galleries Beautiful typography Responsive mobile design CMS for events/blog if appropriate Fast performance No unnecessary gimmicks. Animations should feel elegant and intentional. Ideal Experience Please apply only if you've created websites similar to: Boutique hotels Restaurants Wellness brands Luxury retail Creative agencies Interior design firms Hospitality Experience with Framer is strongly preferred. What I'd Like From You Please include: Your three favorite websites you've built. Why you think they'd fit this project. Your favorite brand website on the internet. Your experience with Framer. Whether you're comfortable collaborating over Zoom while we design together. Budget I'm more interested in finding the right creative partner than the lowest price. Quality, communication, and design thinking are far more important than speed. Bonus Experience with any of the following is a plus: Photography direction Brand identity Copywriting Motion design Illustration Art direction SEO fundamentals
