Jan 2013 - Nov 2014 Budget Places
It was 2013 and the beginnings of responsive web design. inspirations from ‘Airbnb’ , ‘Virgin’ & ‘Skyscanner’ impacted in the way we designed our websites using full screen hero images and search engines becoming the focal point of a homepage.
I reported to the UX Manager and also worked closely following up his wireframes. It was here that I was exposed to the strategy of UX design.
Moving to Barcelona, I joined ‘BudgetPlaces’ as their new Lead Visual Designer. I lead a small team of young designers to re-develop the creative strategy. The goal was to introduce personality to their marketing communications. A stylised set of images was created based on a metro map illustrating the sense of easy travel. These outlined images were both simple enough but impactful enough to support our messages.
New layouts and style sheets were created for newsletter templates and web banners.
