Three Steps for the Non-Designer
• Brainstorming
• Categorization
• Layout
![Page 8: Christopher Ward Kennesaw State graduate 1995 “Magically” worked my way from being an auditor into the Marketing department Marketing director for audio/video](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dbd5503460f94ab087f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Brainstorming
• Generate ideas about what you
want to see on the site
(personal, departmental,
company-wide objectives)
• Generate ideas about what your
users will want to see on the site
![Page 9: Christopher Ward Kennesaw State graduate 1995 “Magically” worked my way from being an auditor into the Marketing department Marketing director for audio/video](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dbd5503460f94ab087f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Brainstorming
• Brainstorming should be done in a
“creative” environment
• Room should have plenty of wall
space, white board, etc…
• Try a diverse brainstorming group…
others from different departments,
end-users

Categorization
• By categorizing the navigation and content elements, a “user-experience” should begin to develop
• A good user-experience should allow users to find what they want quickly and should help to eliminate frustration in not being able to find information

Layout
• Utilize space efficiently– Avoid too much “white space”– Avoid using every single pixel of space– Allow “breathing room between areas
of the page
• Focus on navigation that is easy to follow and creates a nice “user-experience”
