Personal
Experimental spaces and personal archives — where I prototype, test, and keep quieter, introspective work.
About Me
I’m Aiden Griffiths — a web creator and designer drawn to the quiet corners of the internet. I build handcrafted websites that mix storytelling, aesthetics, and human touch. My work often reflects smallness, memory, and presence in a digital landscape that moves too fast.
Each project is coded from scratch, with care for semantics, layout rhythm, and emotional tone.
Philosophy
I believe the web is a space for stories — not just systems. I favor sites that feel personal and tangible, where every element has intention. I aim for clarity, calm design, and subtle motion that complements rather than distracts.
My toolkit includes HTML, CSS, and gentle enhancements — no heavy frameworks, just structure and style.
Selected Projects
🍞 EZ Bakery
Description: A fully functional online bakery site for real product orders — built to showcase baked goods, accept custom requests, and highlight the brand’s handcrafted, made-to-order approach.
My Role: Complete design and development — visual identity, page layout, semantic HTML structure, and responsive CSS styling.
Tech: HTML & CSS, clean semantic markup, soft serif typography for a warm, artisanal feel.
Visit Site →Mapped by Memory
Description: Mapped By Memory is more than a photography project—it's a movement. A quiet, persistent effort to humanize struggle in all its forms. Through portraits, interviews, and raw storytelling, I aim to reveal the beauty, pain, HOPE, and history of people navigating homelessness, poverty, mental illness, trauma, and injustice across the United States.
My Role: Writer, designer, and builder. Personal creative project.
Tech: HTML/CSS, grid layout, soft color palette.
Visit Site →🌐 The Website Of Agriffiths
Description: The Website Of Agriffiths is my primary experimental website — a creative sandbox where I test ideas, layouts, and personal projects without worrying about polish or convention. It’s designed in the spirit of the early web: expressive, chaotic, and hands-on.
The site blends personal expression, coding experiments, and archival elements. Some pages showcase in-progress projects or nostalgic throwbacks to earlier versions of the internet; others focus on personal identity, music, or creative writing. Rather than being a finished “product,” it’s a living record of experimentation — a space where design, personality, and code all evolve together.
My Role: Creator
Tech: HTML and CSS
Visit Site →Zee's Portfolio
Description: Zee's Portfolio is a creative showcase site featuring my Fiances artwork, animation progress, and ongoing projects. It reflects their growth as an artist and serves as a central hub for everything they create and collaborate on.
My Role: Co-builder, designer, and content creator. I’ve helped build and refine the site’s layout, visuals, and presentation. The main development credit goes to my fiancé, Zak.
Tech: HTML/CSS, custom styling, and collaborative web design.
