CLIENT WORKSHOP
As part of the task, the existing website needed a redesign. A workshop with the client was ran in order to evaluate the current content. We printed out each chapter, the size of the “roll” helped the client realize where there was a need for optimization. During this exercise I helped lead the client through the chapters and extract the most important sections.
SKETCHES
Having the content structure in place, I started the sketching phase. Lead a collaboration effort with visual design to tackle different navigation patterns, how to make the chapters more infographic, and the design of the homepage.
WIREFRAMES
I designed a 3 column layout that would allow the modules to scale. Started designing for mobile and scaled to tablet and finally desktop. The wireframes initially illustrated the different combinations we could have with the modules of content identified. Worked on Axure in order to facilitate sharing work with the client and other team members.
FINAL PRODUCT
After 3 weeks of design (UX and visual), the comps started to come alive with the first thresholds we received. The project is now live and you can find it in www.bighistoryproject.com
