We hear all the time about the design and artistic direction of editorial or promotional campaigns for fashion brands and Ecommerce platforms that specialize in fashion, but you rarely ever hear about the technical design world that now powers the fashion industry in this new age of web & mobile experiences.
<ENTER> Jeremy Merrell Williams, the very skilled and highly requested coder/designer to the powers that be in regards to fashion retail & the blogosphere. With an extensive background as an industry insider for top entertainment powerhouses like Warner Bros, Atlantic Records, MTV, and beyond; Jeremy has now worked his way into the minds and trusted networks of some of the fashion industry’s best and finest. From top tier bloggers like Talun Zeitoun, Donna Daily, Eliza Higgins, and Anthony Berklich to world renowned brands like Cole Haan, Tourneau, and Luxottica; Jeremy has managed to combine smart technology with clean conscious design.
Jeremy Merrell Williams & his Vyudu Inc agency in Atlanta,Ga have amassed a large list of clients since 2011, totaling over 400 projects and counting but thats only the start of whats to soon come. With over 5-10 new clients signing on per week, this design and code maestro has only just begun to show the world what can be done when you combine new age technology with minimalist beauty.
“Designing for fashion and beauty brands is absolutely nothing like designing for a music artist, restaurant, or general eCommerce business. Soft and elegant execution is paramount because you want the message and the product to own the real estate of the site at about a 70/30 ratio versus competing with wild and crazy graphics that some designers overly add simply to show & prove that they were capable of doing so. This only clutters the site and suffocates the user. Suffocated users don’t buy and they don’t usually return.”

For the ultimate design recipe to produce beautifully-crafted High Definition websites and apps,
Jeremy suggests that one must focus on these following goals: (1.) Layouts that let content shine, (2.) Big Bold Type, (3.) More SVGs, plus (4.) More focus on animation and complex grid layouts. Jeremy says that following this recipe will give you an end product that is drenched in High Fidelity without it being too heavy on the users eyes and mind.
“The technology that you use to build your site doesn’t really matter but I prefer building sites in either WordPress for content driven sites or an option of Laravel PHP Framework or Full MERN Stack Javascript for sites that are more demanding and feature based.”

Currently, Jeremy is focusing on expanding (www.vyudu.com) Vyudu Inc’s growth in regards to new & existing clients who need a combination of elegance and High Fidelity Design for their platforms, websites, & apps. In addition, Jeremy is also in the process of launching a new tech startup that focuses on making project management easy enough for a 5th grader and fun enough to keep the attentions of a busy 9 to 5er.
“Project management is boring and mundane. No one really wants to do it and those who do suffer from the lack of thoroughly executed and wisely featured online tools that force them to in essence wear more hats than one to accomplish a singular task. My new startup will focus on removing the friction all too common with management tools like Asana or Trello. We are literally building a MONSTER.”

“ I’m so proud of the work I have done along with my partners over the years and even more proud of the success that many of my clients have achieved, but now it’s to partner with other agencies who would like to bring the same High Fidelity Design to their clientele and share in the mutual success”.
