The Paint Nite Project


Create a new and enhanced website with a focus on user-centered and responsive design, increased conversion rates and implementation of a content management system.

Process


  • User stories were collected and organized into pages
  • From the user stories, an information architecture was created detailing all of the specific pages for the web application
  • User flows were mapped onto the information architecture
  • Wireframes of the individual pages were created based on the page’s user stories, existing page analytics and user feedback
  • Once wireframes were approved, the tech team began programming the structure of those pages while user interface was being completed
  • Approved UI design was then sent to the development team for page completion
  • While pages went through testing and QA, designers worked closely with developers to minimize any delays caused by unexpected issues

Accomplishments


  • Our team created a website that manages on average 1.2 million visitors per month (April 2016).
  • Bounce rate was reduced to 28.5% (April 2016).
