Challenge
The main goal was to provide end-to-end development of the website with a fresher look and better user experience concept.
Provide new UI design that meets company's requirements in terms of branding- Improve UX design, make it more intuitive focusing on a specific group of customers
- Design a “favorite” feature, where guests can “favorite” tours, accommodations or interesting places
- Integrate a CMS with a blog crawler that allows to provide previews and fetch data from source links
Solution
The website is under development, however we are ready to share what is done and what problems are solved:
New & fresh UI experience was delivered according to predefined color palette. Each destination has its own color, which is subconsciously associated with cardinal points in Iceland. For instance, East of Iceland is associated with dark-green color because of forests, vast expanses and green narrow fjords. 3 shades of blue were chosen as the main accent colors. These colors remind us about glaciers and cold in Iceland.- Devhance's team improved UX concept by adding additional subnavigation and moving all the destinations to separate pages. Also we changed a structure of the web: activities, restaurants and accommodations are different categories that have their own pages. The value of a new UX design is concentrated on showing to customer a variety of tours, restaurants and accommodations with the option to book in minute, add them to favorite and never lose.
- We designed a “favorite” feature, that allows guests to save favorite tours, places or accommodations and send them by email. To make this feature easy-to-use, we defined a local storage, where all the info is saved, so the number of iterations from user’s side is decreased and guests don’t need to register or login again.
- CMS integration is under development and soon will be available on the main server. Website is on beta test right now.
