The Story behind this problem Statement Chosen

My second assignment was an exciting one. My task was to craft a Single page Landing website. It is an opportunity for me to hone my visual design skills in Figma, and delve into the world of problem-solving and design processes.

For this project, I chose to ‘Design a Landing Page Website for Empower Women in Spiritual Through Worship Workshops by a “group of women worship leaders“. The reason I chose this problem Statement is, that I spent most of my time hearing these women worship leader’s songs, and I got goosebumps to be like them. So I have thought and dreamed of training myself like this event with these wonderful talented leaders. with this dream in my mind, I crafted this landing page for my assignment. This Event and project is completely hypothetical for my assignment. It’s not real. Join me as I explore this web design endeavor!

Problem statement

Future Outcome of WWW:

“The vision for this worship workshop is to facilitate profound encounters with God’s love, power, truth, and the presence of the Holy in the personal life and the Churches. The goal is to draw people closer to God through the act of singing and playing musical instruments, understanding that God’s presence is the catalyst for transforming lives. It believes in unveiling the latent potential within women, ensuring it isn’t obscured by misconceptions or doctrine.”

Jobs To Be Done List

  • Sell tickets, by attracting visitors with the perks & fun at the event
  • show the importance of attending this workshop.

Mood board

I was struggling to pick a vibe for the visual in the initial. So I was drifting a lot in the mood board. Then, As my mentor guide, I started to stick to a few visual theories initially, and based on that I collected the mood board. So that I was able to develop an eye for exactly how I wanted the move forward with the visuals.

An eagle view of my Mood Board

I sorted the inspiration in a unique way which helped me to make better decisions. It is like the following: 1. Visual Inspiration, 2. Pattern Inspiration, 3. Content Inspiration -> Creators, Competitor, 4. CTA Inspiration.

Information Architecture

After the research, I got pretty good insights for IA, and then taking down the data on the page helped a lot to lay out all the information clearly according to priority.

Sketches

After the IA Part, I just poured my all of ideas for the solutions into the paper.

Wireframe Iterations

I took more iterations of my thinking loop in the sketch itself.

Branding

Iterations for a Simple characters Logo for this event.

Logo Iterations

Style Guide

I wanted to have holiness, calmness, and energy with a sense of strong pursuing feeling toward Godly kind of vibe. My Mood board helped me, how the competitors have used it.

Color Choices

I did a few iterations with my chosen color. Finally, I ended up with the below colors.

Typography choices

I chose “Helvetica Neue”. It offers a clean and neutral appearance that can convey a sense of purity and reverence.

Visual Design

After numerous rounds of refinement, I underwent over 10+ iterations for the final UI, primarily focusing on adjustments to my Information Architecture (IA) and wireframes. Here, I’ll guide you through several pivotal iterations that played a crucial role in shaping the final design.

Hero Section

I wanted to make an engaging hero section as it is the first thing visitors see and can significantly impact users’ decisions to explore further. So having the following things in mind, I started to craft the hero.

Headline & Sub-headline: So I Made a concise and compelling headline that grabs attention and communicates my value proposition.

Call-to-Action (CTA): Included a prominent and action-oriented CTA button that directs users to the next step.

Visual Elements: Used high-quality images or graphics that resonate with my event.

Some remarkable Feedback from the above iteration

  1. The location, time & event time counter needs to be more prominent and it would be good if it were in the hero section instead of a separate section to be visible in the first view.
  2. The Headline can be shortened and crisp.
  3. CTA should be very prominent to take action.
  4. The Visual part should be about the event instead of the event trainer.
