Ideation

Templates were defined by means of synthesising the extensive discovery to date. Differentiating between article pages, content heavy pages, and navigational pages was the order of the day, using a paddle, swim and dive motif. 

Final product

Ideation

At launch we had a greatly improved product where the user was able to utilise the Magazine area of the site with the same dexterity as they would their favourite printed magazine, with bold, engaging navigational elements that was intuitive and logical.
