Hi, I’m Walter Clayton, a web developer with a passion for crafting elegant and engaging digital experiences. My journey into web development wasn’t a traditional one, but it’s been shaped by a broad range of interests and experiences. After earning a degree in Sports Science from the University of Brighton, I became a CrossFit coach, where I learned the importance of discipline, precision, and adaptability—skills that have served me well as I transitioned into the world of web development.
Design Philosophy: Simplicity Meets Functionality
I believe that the best designs are those that seamlessly combine simplicity with purpose. Inspired by modern architecture, abstract art, and minimalist design, my approach is influenced by the clean lines of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and the elegant forms of Constantin Brâncuși. Just as these artists create timeless works, I strive to build websites that balance clarity, functionality, and beauty.
Vision and Approach
My approach to web development is driven by a commitment to creativity and precision. Whether I’m working on a personal project or collaborating with clients, my goal is to bring ideas to life in a way that resonates with users and aligns with business goals. My background in sports has taught me the value of resilience and problem-solving, and I apply this same mindset to each project—whether it’s a simple portfolio site or a complex web application.
What Inspires Me
I draw inspiration from a wide array of disciplines: architecture, art, nature, and technology. My love for sports and dance also plays a role in how I think about design—both are about movement, balance, and timing. The fluidity of design and the balance between form and function motivates me to push the boundaries of web development, creating websites that are intuitive, visually captivating, and seamless in their user experience.
A Collaborative Process
I believe that great digital solutions come from close collaboration. My process is client-focused and transparent, ensuring you’re involved every step of the way, from initial concept to final launch. Together, we’ll explore ideas, identify goals, and transform them into a polished final product that not only meets your needs but exceeds your expectations.
From CrossFit to Code: A Unique Path
My transition from CrossFit coaching to web development has been a defining part of my journey. The discipline and focus I learned in sports now influence my work as a developer, allowing me to approach every project with a strategic, goal-oriented mindset. Whether you’re building a new website or enhancing an existing one, I bring that same determination to help you achieve your vision.
