A premium dark-mode site for a life-sciences executive-search firm
Leodis Search is a boutique, founder-led executive-search firm in global life sciences, launched in Leeds by Joe Bakali. The firm had a strong LinkedIn brand but no live site on its intended domain. We took Joe's existing positioning, voice, expertise areas and social proof — all captured from his public LinkedIn — and turned them into a credible, premium single-page site that speaks to hiring companies and senior candidates at once. The visual identity was reconstructed from his logo and cover banner: a gold/ink/paper palette driven by CSS-variable tokens with automatic light/dark section theming, an SVG monogram, and a signature DNA-helix / molecular-network motif rendered as a reusable brand component. Eleven sections run from a sticky header through expertise, sectors, an about-Joe block, five real named LinkedIn testimonials and a styled contact form. The build ran through a multi-agent workflow — parallel section builders, then assembly, then a three-lens adversarial review covering design, responsive accessibility and code quality — which caught and fixed a WCAG-AA gold-on-light contrast failure, a dead logo anchor and missing keyboard accessibility. Deployed to Vercel staging, noindexed, as a mock-up awaiting Joe's sign-off before going live.
The brief
A founder-led life-sciences search firm had a strong LinkedIn brand but no website — and needed a credible, premium site that spoke to both hiring companies and senior candidates at once.
What we did
A token-first single-page site reconstructed from the founder's brand: gold/ink/paper theming with automatic light/dark sections, a signature DNA-helix motif, and five real LinkedIn testimonials — hardened by a three-lens adversarial review that fixed contrast, link and keyboard-accessibility issues.
