This post is part of my Visual Design online portfolio
This week's production day we were asked to use mock-ups and create digital versions of the Trashion magazine we designed last week. I created a few examples of what the homepage would like like on different devices and a couple of examples of how an article would look on different devices.
For the digital version of the magazine I wanted the manstead to be the same as it was on the magazine. This was to make sure that the magazine and its digital formats followed the same style and people could immediately recognise it. My house style included this manstead as well as the black bar as a header and footer on each page, whether it be an article or the homepage. I, again, did this so that the style was immediately recognisable as associated with the Trashion brand.
I wanted everything to be similar in design and not to have too many differentiation's as this would take away the house style and the overall feel of the magazine. I wanted readers to be able to switch devices and still be able to navigate around the site in the same way.
The features on the homepage would be clickable and lead the reader to that particular article. I included the images associated with the article on the homepage in order to give the reader more information and encourage them to click on the links.
The pages at the top of the homepage are the same on each device, as it is the homepage it is important that the reader knows where they can go and their options. If this was the first time the reader had visited the website they can click on their interest whether it be fashion, beauty or reading features.
I included social media buttons and a subscribe button on the homepage in order to redirect people to Trashion's other online platforms and other ways they can keep up to date with the brand. As these are on the homepage they are very accessible and therefore are more likely to get people clicking on them.
