    user experience and feedback 

    From research that I did on websites on the first assignment I also went through reviews on what people had issues with such as errors and what they thought was pointless or what should be added, and this is very useful for those who are making or wanting to improve on their website. A mix on these reviews complained about the accessibility, buttons not working or pages that don’t have anything on them but could be useful. you want to make sure that the user has an good experience with no issues this would consist a design that isn’t too…

    Figma prototype 

    Laptop/ pc website prototype Out through doing this prototype I found more things that I thought that needed to be added and such as my original layout in my opinion seemed a bit too empty and basic. The original layout was supposed to only be six pages but there has ended up being 12 pages and the home page ended up being a lot longer as I kept finding things that I thought should be on the website and is also seen on a lot of websites. At the top of the page, you will see the logo and the…

    initial wireframes and call to action 

    I started with making a more in detail and more put together layout that is organised. I did two layouts one for website and one for mobile.  Website layout  On the home page its simple and calming with not too much going on such as the welcome page at the start before doing anything, the newsletter logo that will send you to sign up to hear more from us and the news part of the home page where once you have your Mouse on the image it will show you a short description and then when pressed it will show…

    Logo and typography

    logos I started with the mouldboards on Pinterest for inspiration on logos and I also used ai to give me some ideas on where to start I did try doing some logos before this but I didn’t like how they turned out I wanted a logo to symbolise people but I also wanted a logo that stranded for the company participatory collective also as cp as I did in my logo design. I want the logo to give a warmth welcoming feeling that will not only look good as a website logo but a logo for posters and merch. I…

    Expand on prior research of similar/relevant companies, which parts of their website do you consider successful? why?  -Butterflies  The website is a nature themed website and at first not a lot of people would notice but the green glass floorer the bright blue sky and the navigation bored is in a cloud shape at the bottom they also have a butterfly logo that goes with the theme of the website and fits in perfectly with the name too.

    Design portfolio

    At the start of this assignment, I started with sketches on ideas for different styles on posters for the event I did a few just to try out different ideas on one of them I did a tattooed women but cartoony like sketch. I didn’t use this because I thought it didn’t fit in with the sort of feeling and welcome I was going for. I also did a floral like background with a tribal mask for a background on the festival, but this event poster didn’t make much sense to me, and it didn’t go with the theme I…

    Adapting Your Design for Web Deployment

    When I started the ipad version of the app there is an similar layout to the mobile one but also different for starters the name of the app is on the top left of the screen and the profile icon is next to the button that leads you to other parts of the app instead of the navigation bar I feel like it  makes the app more clean and minimalist because it’s a bigger screen as well I thought it would make sense to make a new page with buttons to link other pages such as the home page ,…
