About Website

In this case study, I explore the process of designing a website for Backyard Camp — a civilian and veteran-focused tactical training initiative. The goal was to create a clear, credible, and emotionally grounded web presence that reflects the dual nature of the project: intense yet inclusive.

This design process involved strategic research, visual experimentation, and UX structure testing, all tailored to a unique audience that values both resilience and community.

Main Page

The Backyard Camp website was designed as a digital extension of a training community built on values of responsibility, preparedness, and shared mission. The design process focused on structuring content for new visitors, ensuring intuitive navigation, and conveying the spirit of the camp through both visuals and words.

Challenges & Solutions

Challenge:

Present a sensitive subject (firearm culture) in a way that feels both responsible and inclusive.

Solution:

I used clean layouts, assertive but non-aggressive language, and subtle social proof to establish trust while avoiding over-glorification.

Camp Page

The Camp Page plays a key role in converting interest into action. Its structure was built to clearly communicate training value, requirements, and logistics — all while guiding users toward registration. The goal was to maintain a confident, tactical tone while ensuring high content clarity and visual hierarchy.
