kidcrowd
Design and prototype of a gift-giving website ~ website design, ui/ux design, prototyping
kidcrowd is a solution for parents who are fed up with their child receiving unwanted gifts. This website makes giving children's gifts meaningful and sustainable - which will result in children being better with money and a decrease in the 5.1 billion pounds of unwanted gifts that end up in landfill every year.
Working with the Founder, Melissa, I designed and prototyped the entire website in under 5 days. Using Adobe XD, I crafted a website that provides a consistent, family-friendly feel throughout ready for Melissa to present to potential investors.
Prior to starting the project, Melissa and I talked through the requirements of the project and timescales. Due to the date of the investor pitch, this needed to be completed within 5 days. We discussed what pages were needed, the actions the users would need to complete and the direction she wanted the overall feel of the website to go in.
Along with providing the kidcrowd brand guidelines and assets, she also sent over a draft mockup she'd done as a base for me to work from. Using that, I enhanced the design to ensure consistency throughout the pages and the overall site was easy to use and navigate for parents.
I always consider how the site will look on a mobile device, since this is where the vast majority of web browsing now takes place. This also ensures the elements used within the design are accessible across all screen sizes.
