Conversant Studios specialises in building simple and effective websites that balance the business objectives with customers needs, online habits and behaviour. Our sites are easy to use, understand and maintain.
The process
1. Consult, analyse and plan
The first step is to outline the needs of your business and the needs of your customers and balance those needs against the brand & technical requirements. We also work with to outline your role in the project and the positive impact you can have on the time line.
2. Refine, design and use
The second phase centers on information architecture, outlining template structure, defining ‘calls to action’, functional process flows and security and scalability. The objective of this phase is to reflect the requirements of the brief gathered in phase I and provides the customer with the first opportunity to interact with an intrerface. The outcome of all this work is a functional set of approved wireframes.
3. Design and develop
The third phase concentrates on completing a user centered design process that meets the brand and style requirements. This is where we lock down the colours palette, typographic treatment and basic interactions. We also develop a content strategy and asset list so we can develop all the content needed in parallel with the next phase.
4. Prototype and populate
We build a dynamic prototype and populate the site with live content. Browsers are dynamic environments - everyone has a different screen size, default size and personal preferences - and this is the phase where we pour the content into this dynamic environment. This allows us to bring all possible errors to the surface at an early stage without a major impact on the time line.
5. The programming
At this stage all the look and feel and content should be locked down so we can provide the technology needed to drive the website. At Conversant Studios we are (mostly) agnostic about your technology preferences. We do have a few preferred technologies - but we are happy and able to build websites and applications in just about any technology.
6. Test, deliver and release
The final phase in the development involves migration to staging platform, user acceptance testing (UAT), final modifications from UAT and getting the site live.
