About me

An open source enthusiast studying computer engineering. Also a UI/UX designer and a front end web developer

Location: Bamenda Cameroon

Project description

Abstract/summary (<20 words):

I went through the Infragram website and here are some suggestions I have for the UI of the landing page of Infragram. I noticed some issues on the original landing page which are listed below;

• There is a lack of proper hierarchy

• Because of lack of sections, the page makes new users confused

• The lack of a navigation bar

Problem

I redesigned the landing page to look less crowded yet not going far off from the original design. This new design provides a simple and friendly UI for users. This design uses the main logo colors and most of the call to action buttons are in the color of the logo

And I added a navigation bar for easier navigation and also added a sub Navigation bar on the landing page that directs to the various sections of the landing page

_I also worked on the responsiveness and provided a proposed design for the view on mobile
_

Timeline/milestones

This design can be broken down into sections like on the page sections and one section is developed per week

Needs

Will need content, data, documentation and some design software to edit the designs
