Project Goals
Stakeholder Collaboration: I closely collaborated with key stakeholders, including the marketing department and SWP leaders. Understanding their goals, values, and priorities was essential to achieving the desired design.
Responsive Design: The party needed a responsive website seamlessly adapted to various devices—desktops, tablets, and mobile phones. Ensuring a consistent experience across platforms was critical. Up to the redesign project, their website was a non-responsive, archaic site.
Visual branding: I worked to align the digital design with SWP’s brand identity. The challenge was to create a cohesive visual language that resonated with the party’s core values.
