Details
Information architecture is deciding how the site should be structured, what kind of content it should host, and how to accommodate future growth. In short, information architecture defines the backbone of a website. The planning in this stage of development will yield an organized, friendly website, one that users can easily navigate, accessing information that interests them.
This process starts with discovery. Here the business plan and priorities of the stake-holders are addressed. We analyze how potential users segment into groups based on how we believe these groups will use your site. Then based on these discoveries we determine the technical, aesthetic and functional needs for the success of the site.
Work on design and architecture will be done using mock-ups made in Adobe Fireworks which can be viewed in any browser.
