Design process

User research: summary
For the IDJ e-commerce website design project, I engaged in user research to pinpoint customer requirements. By conducting interviews and synthesizing data into an affinity map, it was clear that users desired a seamless, reliable online shopping experience for purchasing diamonds. This insight was critical in guiding the development of an e-commerce platform that not only streamlined the shopping process but also instilled a sense of trust and confidence, essential for high-value transactions like diamond purchases.
Design strategy: addressing pain points

In the redesign of the IDJ e-commerce website, I tackled the challenge of its outdated design, which was hindering user engagement. My goal was to modernize the website, creating a visually attractive and user-friendly interface that would resonate with customers and build their confidence in the brand. Additionally, I delved into user journey mapping to pinpoint crucial interaction points on the site. This process allowed me to identify where the website could provide essential information and enhance the overall shopping experience, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable journey for users looking to purchase diamonds.

Starting the design
I integrated feedback and insights gathered from initial user testing. This process was crucial in refining the website’s interface for better user engagement. A particular focus was placed on ensuring intuitive navigation and effectively highlighting the key services offered. This approach was aimed at simplifying the user’s journey through the site, making it easier for them to find and engage with the products and services they need, thereby enhancing the overall customer experience.

Laying out the content

I began by remapping the content structure to create a more organized and user-focused layout. The wireframing phase was initiated to logically distribute content into well-defined sections. This step was critical in achieving dual objectives: aligning with the business goal of engaging users in focused interactions, and fulfilling user needs by clearly demonstrating the platform’s functionality. The final design choices, aimed at enhancing both user experience and business engagement, are detailed in the project’s redesign section.

UI Design

For the IDJ e-commerce website design, which focuses on diamonds and jewelry, I selected the Noto Serif typeface for main headers and Noto Sans for regular text. These typefaces from the Google Fonts collection were chosen for their elegant and refined qualities, complementing the luxurious and sophisticated nature of a diamond store. Noto Serif, with its serif style, adds a touch of class and distinction to the headers, while Noto Sans provides a clean and readable experience for the body text. Together, they form a harmonious and visually appealing design, enhancing the upscale and professional image of the IDJ e-commerce platform.
