Less Noise, More Trust: A Website That Honors the Patient Journey
While I was out in Utah launching the website, Angela and I took a road trip to the famous spiral jetty
When you walk into a museum, you’re not there to marvel at the drywall, you’re there to experience the art. The gallery is the frame, not the focus. That was the guiding philosophy behind the design of Angela Keen’s new website.
Working with Dr. Keen and knowing her personally for over a decade, she works at the intersection of science, artistry, and trust. Her work is deeply personal, and rooted in precision. From a designer standpoint, that meant I needed to take a backseat. Building a site that feels effortless and clean, never competing with her work but instead highlighting it.
We designed the site to behave more like a modern gallery space than a traditional medical website. Space and clarity became our key design principles. The typography is quiet and minimal. The color palette is restrained. Imagery is bold where it needs to be and completely absent where it doesn’t serve a purpose. Navigation flows like a guided conversation, not a sales pitch.
For plastic surgery clients, who are often contemplating a personal transformation, every design choice matters. A cluttered layout and hard-to-find information can raise subtle doubts. By contrast, a clean and intuitive website builds trust from the first click. It says this: you’re in the right place.
We also took time to consider how emotion plays into the journey. Surgery isn’t just about aesthetics. It’s about reclaiming confidence. We made sure Angela’s website feels human. Real outcomes and real care. Visitors aren’t overwhelmed with clinical jargon. Instead, they’re welcomed with simplicity. A website should never try to be the star of the show. It should be the vehicle . In Angela’s case, a gallery that quietly says: look at what’s possible.

Much like the Spiral Jetty, this website isn’t about dominating attention, it’s about guiding it with purpose, restraint, and clarity.
