This week was all about the look of the website. We prepared five very different drafts and tried them out on a computer screen and on a phone.
Why Riviera
The “Riviera” draft uses the colours of the area: the deep blue of Lake Garda, the silvery green of the olive trees and the sandy tone of the dry-stone walls. Photos take centre stage, the text has room to breathe and the technical data can be read at a glance.
- large images at the top of each village page;
- identical tiles to choose where to start;
- trail sheets with length, elevation gain and time always in view;
- clear buttons to download the GPX track and the PDF sheet.
Easy to read, first of all
Many people will use the website outdoors, with the sun on the screen. That is why we chose large fonts, good contrast and pages that load quickly even with a weak signal.
