Lincoln Smoothies

Wellness & Smoothie Bar · Lincoln, RI

A wellness smoothie bar that needed to look as fresh as their drinks.

The Challenge

No website. Operating entirely through social media with no way to showcase their full menu, combo pairings, or wellness profile services. New customers had no way to browse before visiting.

The brand needed a digital presence that matched the fresh, healthy, aspirational energy of the physical space.

The Approach

This project went through four complete design iterations before landing on the final aesthetic. Neon, tropical, editorial -- none of them felt right. The fourth attempt, a dreamy glassmorphism design, was the winner.

Frosted glass cards with backdrop blur create depth. Soft pastel gradient orbs float behind the content with parallax movement. Plus Jakarta Sans typography keeps everything clean and modern. Product photos are displayed in gradient circle containers. GSAP handles all entrance animations.

Key Features

The owner loved the dreamy aesthetic. Four design iterations proved that getting it right matters more than getting it fast. The glassmorphism version captures the fresh, aspirational energy of the brand perfectly.

The Impact

Lincoln Smoothies went through four design iterations before landing on the dreamy glassmorphism aesthetic that captured the cafe's wellness-focused identity. The final version strips away all template energy and replaces it with something that feels handmade.

The site loads in under a second, works perfectly on mobile, and puts the menu front and center. Customers in Lincoln can browse smoothie options, check hours, and get directions without scrolling through a cluttered social media page. It is a calm, focused experience that mirrors the shop itself.
