Sola Kabuta
Creative Front-End Developer
& Visual Designer

My name is Sola [pronounced SHO-LA].

I turn ideas into clear, well-built interfaces. Trained in front-end development with a strong eye for design, I move fluidly between vision and code — adapting each technical and creative decision to what the project actually needs, not a fixed formula. My path has taken me from an accounting firm's website to automotive campaign banners for Audi and Škoda, via D'Ieteren. Different briefs, same approach: understand the problem fast, structure it clearly, deliver something that works.

Selected Work

A collection of projects spanning agency campaigns, From Figma to Reactjs or WordPress builds, and personal experiments — From pixel - perfect integration of complex mockups to interactive WEB APPS, I care as much about how a project performs under real constraints as how it looks on a screen. Every case study below breaks down the problem, the decisions made, and what shipped.

About Me

(02)

Career changer : six years in hospitality and retail — mixology, bar management, visual merchandising — before retraining as a front-end developer. I traded managing a room for building interfaces, but the same instinct for composition and attention carried over. Outside of work: self-taught in music and photography (I covered L'Espace du Son festival in 2025), and a serious gamer — competitive FPS for the reflexes, solo adventure games for the world-building and interface design I can't help but study.
