Max Grillo DJ

Michela Chiucini crafted this striking portfolio for techno and house DJ Max Grillo, wrapping the artist in an unapologetically dark, club-ready aesthetic. The homepage pairs an oversized white wordmark, set in two commanding lines of bold typography, with a moody low-key portrait of Grillo in a black leather jacket, arms crossed against a near-black background. A pared-back top navigation — Music, About, Contact and a pair of social icons — keeps the focus squarely on mood and presence, while a subtle framing rectangle adds a quiet compositional device. It is a confident piece of web design that leans on restraint, letting dramatic lighting and scale carry all the attention. The result feels every bit as sleek and nocturnal as the music it represents.
