THE FUTURE
IS VERTICAL

We ensured that the design met the requirements for the visually impaired by selecting the brand and complementary colors and artwork that would read well online and draw attention to the particular end-user. The content was our greatest challenge when balancing form with function. However, with a thoroughly strategic user plan, well-executed wireframes and prototyping, the style concepts came together smoothly. A great number of students, especially in their targeted age group, use their mobile devices to access Douglas College’s website. Hence, it was paramount to create a strong layout that works synchronously with different screen sizes that offer a comfortable user experience.
