The Brief

Ethical Encounters required a landing page with a range of essential features. Central to this mission was the creation of a seamless user experience, enabling individuals to effortlessly explore ethical encounters by location and date, ensuring they could uncover ethical experiences nearby at their convenience.
Transparency was paramount, so Ethical Encounters needed to ensure that the integrity of their offerings was conveyed. Every experience showcased on their website is rigorously vetted, with team members conducting thorough research and frequent on-site visits to guarantee a 100% ethical experience. It was essential that this was showcased on the homepage to ensure users feel secure in knowing they're booking an ethical experience with no harm caused to animals whatsover.
In addition to presenting a captivating array of experiences, Ethical Encounters also wanted to prioritise the presentation of a user-friendly category filter, a newsletter sign-up, and a dynamic blog section. Above all, it was essential to design a website that allows users to effortlessly navigate their offerings right from the homepage, fostering an intuitive and enjoyable browsing experience.

Wireframing

Wireframing the landing page for Ethical Encounters was a pivotal step in the website design process. It offered a clear visual blueprint, mapping out the placement of essential elements such as the search bar, filters, values, newsletter sign-up, and the blog section before crafting the high fidelity designs. This blueprint was instrumental in optimising the user experience (UX) by strategically positioning these elements for easy user interaction, ensuring a user-friendly design.

High Fidelity Designs

Bringing the wireframes to life was an exciting phase in Ethical Encounters' landing page design. The colour palette chosen for the final designs featured vibrant green, black, and white, where green symbolised their dedication to sustainability and ethical values, while black and white provided a sophisticated backdrop for content, enhancing readability. High-quality professional photography took centre stage, showcasing the beauty of sanctuaries, safaris, and the remarkable creatures they aimed to protect. These captivating visuals not only conveyed the allure of ethical experiences but also established a powerful emotional connection with users, reinforcing the organisation's mission.
In selecting the fonts, Ethical Encounters sought to strike a balance between professionalism and approachability. The chosen fonts were easy to read, ensuring a seamless user experience while reflecting the organisation's friendly and caring personality. These final designs were the result of careful planning and attention to detail, and a commitment to creating a visually stunning and user-friendly platform. This transformation from wireframes to high fidelity designs not only communicated Ethical Encounters' mission but also resonated with their audience, offering an immersive and ethical browsing experience that embodied the organisation's core values and personality.
