My Design Process
Step 1: Consultation
At the introductory meeting, information, style guides, colour selection, photos and text for the website are discussed, requested and collected.
Step 2: Visual Presentation Design
The next step is to create a visual presentation design document. A visual presentation design document is a summary of all the information that will be included in the website. This includes: the objective of the website, colours, fonts, links displayed in the menu, the text that is included in the website, photos for the website and a basic layout of the website in the form of wireframes.
Step 3: Build Upon The Wireframe
Once the visual presentation design document is approved, the next step begins with programming and building the website based on the layout provided by the wireframes:
Final Step: Completed Project
In the final step, a meeting with Joe is scheduled and the website is presented to him and is asked if there are any updates he would like completed. If no edits are required the project is considered complete. Below are the final layout designs of the website in the context of a phone, tablet, laptop and desktop:
