IA/UXD Services

Radio.sonicnet.com was a Website where end users purchase CDs online.

Information architecture consisted of designing interaction design and end user flows that would enable an end user to make purchases online.

Information architecture and interaction design gives the end user easy access to the Website as well as a way out (built-in affordances), when interactions cannot be completed.

Did the interaction design, end user flow, schematic (database operations), wire frame mockups, IA, and IXD research.

Research and development provided high-quality IA concepts for project.

Great team to work on—project was successfully completed.

Due to technologies, non-disclosure agreements and confidentiality, not everything can be presented here.
