.Create a list of all users that may visit your site (not from the WWW but those you’d invite).
>employers
>peers
>family members
>friends
.What will each of those users want to see in order to enjoy their visit to your site?
They will want to see a sampling of my work that I have completed while at school and also see what other creative things I am working on.
.Name your intended audience (the person(s) you need to persuade.)
My intended audience would be my current employer and coworkers and eventually future employers. I want to show them that I have the skills needed in interior design to be an asset to their company.
.Describe what you need to inform and persuade them of:
Promote my: interior design skills as well as my creative abilities.
Goals of the site are: to gain a full time career position
My ultimate message/philosophy (about who you are): is that design is part of everyday life and it helps us all to function productively and efficiently while adding style and elegance to a space.
What is the story you are telling? I am telling anyone who views my site that I am a great designer who loves what she does and is willing to work hard to persue that passion.
.Write a 200 word concept statement based on the user, your persuasion, navigation and the assets.
I am building this website to show my current and future employers that I am a passionate and talented interior designer that would be an asset to any design team. I want to show that I have design skills by making a clear and concise website showcasing my creative works. It is important that my work stands out so a simple background with a touch of elegance will be enough to get my point across. As a person browses my site, they will see drafting projects, CAD projects, design development skills, renderings, as well as some other creative hobbies such as knitting, jewelry making, painting, and photography. I want to show that I am a versatile designer and am willing to do anything that an employer would need me to do. I will really push my strengths such as my CAD work to show that I am proficient in this area of design. I also need to make the site easy to navigate because my current employer is not too current with technology so I need to be able to guide her to what she needs to see. I want to show her that I have skills she can add to her company.
.List the assets you need to persuade the user: Which 7 (minimum) projects? scans of what?, photos of what objects? images from what computer graphics program? what descriptive text? list them.
Detailing Project (Complete with CAD drawings, sketches, and renderings)
Rendering (Hand Rendered Drawings)
Commercial Design (Complete with CAD drawings, sketches, and renderings)
Kitchen and Bath (Kitchen Remodel project)
Model Making (Photos of 2 models)
Material Presentation (Photographs of material layouts)
Professional Practices (Resume, design statement)
