Web Designer Day is a celebration of the creativity, innovation, and technical expertise of web designers. This day honors the contributions of these professionals who shape our digital experiences and create visually stunning, user-friendly websites.

Web design goes far beyond aesthetics. It's about creating user-friendly interfaces that guide customers through the shopping journey. A well-designed website is not only visually appealing, but also intuitive and informative. It should be easy for users to navigate, find the products they're looking for, and complete their purchases effortlessly. This is especially important in e-commerce, where first impressions matter.

At Shop Circle, we are proud to have a team of exceptionally talented web designers who play an important role in making our e-commerce solutions stand out. Today, we want to shine a spotlight on a few of our amazing colleagues and share their stories and experiences in the world of web design.

Meet Our Talented Web Designers

Saul Haros

To Saul, transitioning to web design was a key step in his career. With a background in branding and industrial design, he wasn't familiar with digital design, but was always interested in great copy, visual communication, and interaction. He embraced the challenge, learning and gaining experience until digital design became a regular part of their work. He enjoys the practicality of creating sites and prototyping in real-time using the many tools available today.

The biggest challenge Saul faces in e-commerce design is working on time-sensitive projects. Sometimes, there isn't time for A/B testing before launch, so he has to make changes on the go to achieve the desired outcome. 

He is especially proud of his work on the Shop Circle website, where he got to collaborate and work on solo projects. He constantly seeks new ways to improve the website's look and feel while maintaining consistency across different designs. He finds inspiration from daily apps, physical devices, and specific websites like Mobbin, Dribbble, Behance, and the Panda plugin for Chrome.

Ernad Baručija

Ernad's path to web design started with a passion for fan art and abstract creations at just 11 years old. His early experiments with Adobe Photoshop opened a gateway to the vast world of design, where he gained skills in playing with elements, colors, and typography. For Ernad, the biggest challenge in design is finding the right creative approach for each project, striving for uniqueness and originality every time.

One of Ernad's standout projects was his participation in an international hackathon competition - WoW Info, where he designed a product logotype and user interface for an application. This project not only marked his entry into UX/UI design but also resulted in a thriving application used by many daily. His inspiration comes from diverse sources, including design platforms like Dribble and Behance, and even traditional media such as magazines and brochures.

Adis Pita

Adis' fascination with web design lies in its perfect blend of creativity and problem-solving. He enjoys creating digital spaces that are not only visually appealing but also functional and impactful. Adis identifies several key challenges in e-commerce design: ensuring user-friendly navigation & security, creating responsive designs, and maintaining fast load times.

Adis is particularly proud of an e-commerce site he designed for a niche organic skincare brand. He used a clean, minimalist design to reflect the brand's identity, with engaging content and intuitive navigation. Key priorities included ensuring responsive design and fast load times. Adis finds inspiration in many places, from design blogs and nature to architecture and the latest web design trends.

Emina Silajdžić‍

Emina’s initial interest in web design came from a mix of her love for creativity and technology. She has always enjoyed solving problems, and web design allows her to do that in a way that is both artistic and technical. Balancing attractive design with practical functionality while incorporating the client's vision and feedback can be challenging.

One project Emina is particularly proud of is the development of Shop Circle's Affiliate Program. The goal was to create a platform where developers, influencers, and content creators could monetize their influence by referring their audience to Shop Circle apps. Her inspiration comes from design communities like Dribbble, Behance, and Awwwards, as well as competitor analysis, which provides insights into industry standards and new ideas.

Adis Čengić‍

Adis' journey into web design began in graphic design, where he focused on print and branding. His experience in marketing agencies expanded his expertise to digital product  design. As the digital landscape evolved, Adis found himself increasingly drawn to web design, particularly in e-commerce. The potential of digital stores to shape the future of business inspired him, leading him to dedicate himself fully to this field.

When designing e-commerce websites, Adis prioritizes user experience (UX) above all else. He prides himself on treating every project with the same level of importance, focusing on achieving successful user interaction and visually impeccable design. He finds inspiration internally, with his team handling every aspect of design, animation, video production, illustrations, and photography. This approach ensures that each project is unique and original. Adis occasionally draws inspiration from sites like Awwwards, SiteInspire, Lapa.ninja, CSS Nectar, Behance, Designspiration, and Commerce Cream.
