Skills

After a few year of running an outdated website this agency felt like it was time for a brand refresh and the website was part of this project. I started by analysing the existing site and all the analytics data they had to draw a clear picture of the usage of the site and it’s users. The idea was to recenter the website to the essentials : the agency work and their offer. To achieve this goal I worked on simplifying the architecture and making sure the main user target would find the information they need.
In terms of UI they wanted something more contemporary and creative with an emphasis on the work they produce to showcase their skills.
Personas
Two clear user profiles where identified during the research and in consultation with all the agency’s members. We then summarised their different needs and expectations.
