Progress of Site--August 8




Since arriving at Green Lifestyles in June, the new site has moved ahead but still has a long ways to go as far as layout and information organization. The GreenLifestyles.org website focuses on living a green life in every aspect such as eating organic, using organic or vegan beauty products or entertainment that will only positively benefit your mind. Because there are so many different subjects surrounding the site there is a lot of information that needs to be divided into categories. While the heads of the web design and communication "departments" have been loading information onto the site as well as all of our images from past events, the group of interns has been developing design for the site as well as posters for the events that were held this summer.

It's progressed throughout the summer but it has been difficult developing a cohesive design with so many different people adding designs and ideas. It has been an experience of learning how to work with a client and a start up organization and website. As of today, the site still has not been publicly launched but we hope to launch in the next month or so. There have been set-backs such as the client changing their mind and moving offices. Right now, the organization is moving down the street so it has been chaotic and the site progress has been put on hold as that takes place but our meeting this week Friday (my final meeting) will be at the new location so I'm excited to see the building.

Below is a screen shot of the site so far with the design elements that Dorit has chosen from my background design and colors as well as design elements that she found on other sites that she liked.


The banner (in orange) is a place holder for the moment as myself and another design intern are developing a few final ideas for the banner at the top of the site incorporating the original logo and colors found on the site.
