Sentricon: Appreciated Disgust

| JVS

Sentricon_web_h1.png

Above: This was the homepage with one photo from the carousel of three images. The basic layout was made to be a convergent approach to messaging from the top-down approach beginning with the homepage. One large image and one message which gets split into 3 diverse messaging channels. (Note: the social icons were not added by me in this screen shot)Sentricon_web_h2.png

Above: This is the same homepage layout showing another photo. This was an amazing differentiator to the client. The photography was from a distance insect photographer Ph.D. in Entomology; Alex Wilde. His attention to detail and beauty was amazing and unique. I licensed three amazing images for this project to give detail and beauty to something so horrible and destructive to household wood in general.Sentricon_web_m1.png

Above: The other strong and effective messaging was the ability to re-direct with objects within the site.

Below: While only one advert-tout is shown above, below you will find 3 of the full 16 of these objects. Each object had a ‘green rest state’ and a ‘purple mouseover state’. All the message objects were basically macro-projects for the website. I worked with a talented writer and roughed out a large amount of content for the website.

Today: This project is one my older but it is one of my favorites. And while I’d like think think the client has long moved on…I will still see these pop up every once in a while.

Above: This layout was a new way that could be updated over time so as the website could remain fresh for a longer period of time. This was a dynamic shot with an emphasis on amenities of neighborhoods.

General: Drees was needing a better website with a gentle nudge to the future.Screen Shot 2015-01-21 at 12.18.29 AM.png

Above: One of the approaches for the design was to really push everything out to be as clean as possible. Use of typography with hinted icons to bring about specificity without clutter. leadgen_click_crop.jpg

Above: One of the most innovative approaches of effective interaction, was the use of the ‘sticky objects’. These object strategically follow the user without impeding the user journey.

Above: Clean and neat. This is one example of a core design use and application of elegant and clean design.

Wire framing and Exploration

| JVS

Typically companies rely on boxes and lists to display data. This was an exploratory exercise to start an early concept of an app that would be able to help a company manage their employees usage better then Excel spreadsheets. The work-product below is shown with a balance of wire-frame and light design application.fa_wire1.png

Above: One of the fundamental differences that app would have a core was the ability to show a lot of data in a tight and fluid format(s)fa_wire4.png

Above: The mobile version would still have the strong circular approach to show data.fa_wire2.png

Above: Having a large amount of T-cell people made tracking and application difficult. This diagram was illustrating a system for managing individuals with multiple skills and multiple applications to new work.fa_wire5.png

Above: The desktop version had the most room to display the data. This layout is showing how the desktop version would use the larger space available.
