Development
Employing Squarespace as the primary platform, I developed the website, allowing the client to make updates independently. Integrating custom HTML and CSS where necessary, I ensured a seamless user experience and functionality beyond the builder’s capabilities. This process emphasized the significance of high-fidelity mockups in translating design concepts into a fully functional website.
Reflection
Working on this project provided invaluable lessons in information architecture, as I honed my skills in organizing content for optimal accessibility. With the client’s plethora of external forms for parents, I learned the importance of intuitive navigation, ensuring seamless access to essential resources. Moreover, I mastered the art of balancing a vibrant and engaging design with an emphasis on safety and usability, fostering trust and professionalism within the brand. Additionally, I successfully maintained the established brand identity throughout the project, further solidifying its integrity and recognition among users.
