05 Refined Sketches

However, we received important advice that our direction of the design did not address a need of our users--to impress. The bright orange design did not look "impressive". Indeed, during our presentation of the wireframes, the class commented that the page was too cluttered. In an effort to address all these important issues, we completely redesigned the interface. We decided that that the recipe site was a small section of an overall site, where the purpose was to impress in life.

We decided to emphasize the appearance of the food. So rather than using textual links of navigation, we employed the use of food images to drive the site. Our pages is dependent on the scenario of Bertha and Martha as she goes on a search for an elegant dish.
