Company

Founded in Pilsen in 1994, Bohemia model management moved operations to Prague in 1995 and quickly acquired of the leading positions thanks to talented staff, a portfolio of models that fit the needs mainly of the Czech market, and superior scouting which led to discover and launch models of the likes of Karolina Kurkova.

Old Website

After taking a look at the website itself, I determined contained a following problems:

1 · Error in the visual labeling of the image, contrast problem

2 · The splash screen takes up a lot of space and doesn't provide any information. The user may get lost right at the start

3 · It is necessary to make the Become a Model form more attractive. Evaluate what is most important for the company

4 · Marking has graphic problems. Change graphics, add model dimensions

5 · Card sorting is sometimes incomprehensible. I will come up with a new way to open the gallery and name the section

6 · Sometimes the pictures don't fit in the frame. Come up with a new gallery where the photos will keep their size

Competitor Analysis

Get inspiration and identify best practices for website redesign. I performed a competitor analysis.

I started by looking at the sites of several other modeling agencies. One common feature I noticed on these websites was the placement of the Become a Model button to emphasize it as the main call to action. This was an important design pattern to consider to make it easier and more efficient for users to get started

After conducting research and analysis, it's important to understand that users have different needs, expectations, and concerns

The target audience is young men and women between 18-30 years old. the majority of people interested in modeling agency .. are single and they take up a large proportion of about 60%. People work in Arts, Entertainment, Sports, and Media

Site Map

After analyzing the old site and discussing with the owner of the agency and determining our primary persona, I designed a site map, and how the user will move on to the new design. The site requires a new layout of the gallery and categories, we will try to put more emphasis on Become a Model.

Lo-Fi

To Test initial design i started to do Lo-Fi.

Wireframes

The Wireframing process helped clean my designs

Style Guide

I decided to go with simple colours. To highlight the elegance of the company, there is nothing better than leaving the black and white combination

Typography: Fonts Name: Open Sans Italic and Dosis

Visual Design

And now I will do the last part of the Visual Design. We activate all the necessary components such as buttons, images, videos, colors, in my case shades.

User Testing

The user tests we performed mainly confirmed that the user was able to navigate functionally and sufficiently. I solved the problem with the opening page so that the user can choose between a female and a male gallery right at the beginning. Thanks to the testing, we found a lot of useful information, for example, another problem was in become and the model, where when entering data, sometimes the user enters incorrect information, for example, writing a street within the city. For your idea of how the site is displayed, I have prepared a prototype in which each of you can try out how the site works. I will be glad for any feedback and critical remark that could move the site forward
