C&A Mexico - Website Redesign

A Fresh Facelift for More User-Friendly Navigation

[Project Overview]

Besides having more than 70 stores throughout Mexico, C&A has its own ecommerce where the user can find more than two thousand garments, place orders and shop securely anywhere in mexico.

The website redesign project aims to create a more modern design in line with the brand's personality, all this hand in hand with a design oriented to improve the user experience. With a more intuitive navigation flow and seeking to meet the search needs of all types of users who visit the website every day.

[Problem Statement]

After conducting heat map research on the current site and reading feedback from active e-commerce users, as well as benchmarking direct and indirect competitors, we were able to detect some pain points that users were experiencing.Mainly with the lack of relevant information for the user and the implementation of call to actions and new features for a more comfortable navigation.

‍1.-Lack of good product presentation

2.-Difficult to locate relevant information

3.-Better organization and hierarchy of categories

4.-UI modernization, aligned with the brand

[Key Learnings]
A greater challenge

This project was different from the previous ones I had worked on. On the one hand, it was a very big project for a worldwide recognized company such as C&A, which implies following more defined guidelines, working with a bigger team and different stakeholders. In a project of this magnitude the changes and challenges are constant, so I learned to adapt and embrace the problems to find a solution, always thinking about the user. I learned to work with a bigger team and conformed by different areas, from photographers, fashion designers, customer service, web developers and more.

Redesigning

As the first redesign project, I encountered new and challenging situations. Working on a project that already exists is something different, there are more marked guidelines and limits so as not to lose the coherence of the brand or the previous design, it is an evolution in the case of this project. Respect the branding, the tone and even maintain features of the previous design that work and give them a new face. It is vital to know the brand in depth to be able to express correctly what you want to convey and also to know the final consumer and his thoughts and desires.

I know that the process never ends and continues to continue with design iterations to always find the best solutions and have a friendly and easy to use site, without neglecting the visual aspect
