A website design for a Coventry based antiques shop, aiming to balance the variety of stock with a clear and coherent design. Showcasing the character of the shop and allowing easy browsing and purchasing.

The character of the shop is unique and needed to come through, so I have included a virtual tour feature that has links embedded within to the various categories of items.

The information about the shop is all located in the same place, allowing a user to find out everything they need to efficiently and easily.

Items would be listed in categories, on a long scrolling page. Items can be zoomed in on and viewed from different angles.

An app that links to Instagram, exploring the deeper memories behind the snapshot images that are uploaded.

Page to upload image and record a spoken memory of the time the photo was taken.

Instagram feed documenting the memories of the members of 'Share', celebrating the thoughts and feelings and reasons behind the photos.

The Brief: Create a new online presence for the Ephemera Society, thinking about how you may attract a younger and more modern clientele.

Using rows of images of ephemera that could be horizontally, scrolled through. I wanted to play on the riffling motion used at ephemera fairs and events.

Once an image has been selected the item and items similar would be zoomed in on, allowing the browser to view them more closely.

If the browser wishes to find out more about the item, they must click again on the image. They will then be asked to log in or sign up.

Once and member and logged in, the browser may find out more about the specific item.
