Built fast, built to grow.
A crisp, scalable site for Carnitas El Momo—ready for what’s next.
Brand + Build
Overview
A juicy redesign and build with room to grow.
Carnitas El Momo is an L.A. icon, a name synonymous with flavor and cult following. They needed a site that respected that reputation while setting the foundation for future expansion. I delivered a fast, responsive Webflow build with brand-driven UI components that scale cleanly across digital touchpoints.
Legacy Limitations
Challenge
Outdated site, no structure for growth.
The previous site didn’t reflect the brand’s energy or food quality. It lacked a clear content structure, was slow and didn’t showcase the awesome media coverage of Carnita's El Momo.
Smart Scaffold
Approach
UI built for simplicity, identity and expansion.
I translated the essence of Carnitas El Momo’s visual voice into a modular Webflow build — pairing bold type and a fun, bubbly edge to a scalable UI kit. The system is flexible by design, ready to support new pages, features, and even eCommerce when the time is right (I'm thinking pork forks).
Fast + Flexible
Highlights
Built for performance and polish.
Primary improvements:
- Core brand style definition
- Components designed for easy reuse and editing
- Mobile-first layouts with tactile, tasty interactions
- CMS-ready to support future press, menu, or location updates
Ready to Grow
Outcomes
A digital home that grows with the brand.
With a fast, brand-forward foundation in place, Carnitas El Momo’s new site doesn’t just look better — it functions better. It’s now positioned for content expansion, merch drops, and deeper community connection without needing to start from scratch. Only forward now; Full hooves ahead.
Build with Intent
Reflection
A small project with big potential.
This wasn’t just a reskin — it was a strategic rebuild. It reminded me how thoughtful component design and strong brand alignment can transform even the smallest sites into powerful platforms.
