Gala Couture

Web Design, 2005 - 2007

Located in San Jose, California, Gala Couture was a young company focused on creating custom Bridal Gowns and Evening Wear for their clientele. Working closely with Liz, the business owner, I designed and published an online presence for her business. The goal of the site was to demonstrate the professionalism and talent that one could expect from Gala Couture. In 2007, Liz relocated to Portland, Oregon and subsequently shut down her business and website.

Using old fashioned pencil and paper, I mocked up the site interactions then used Photoshop and Dreamweaver to develop. I used Flash, CSS, and HTML.

 
Post production, I ran informal usability studies with some close friends of mine to test navigation and discoverability. I made a few modifications based on what I learned from my study.
