Design brief
Rob Wiek contacted me with a simple brief; 'Provide us with a few re-designed pages of our corporate website Youwe.nl. Don't bother redesigning content.'
Design solution and Art Direction
I designed two versions, both based on Youwes existing brand guidelines.
Version 1 has a more traditional look&feel but with a lot of whitespace and well-balanced graphic elements. I also suggested a change in the typography to get a more consistent look channel-wide.
Version 2 used a more bold approach and freedom towards the current brand style.
Youwe choose to continue with Phase 2 with the Version 1 designs.
All webdesigns where made with Adobe Photoshop and with the Mobile First methodology in mind, where mobile designs where designed prior to the desktop version.
Although this usually is used because of the advantages in content presentation and sanitation (not part of this project), I used it primarily to make focus on great mobile website design.
