When I started working at Six Degrees in 2016, the company had a website that had not caught up to the times, it was still desktop-only and did not scale. I spearheaded the initiative to redesign their entire site (with over 20 years of history in it and over 500 pages). It was a worthwhile effort that span many months, with help from a wordpress developer, other designers and interns we got it done. From concept to completion. Their site is now fully responsive across devices and daily traffic increased by 300%.

Mockups (left) and Live Site (right). At a glance the homepage provides all the latest content, news and relevant material. Here you can see some of the initial wireframes and how the site actually turned out.
I designed a total of 8 template pages:
- Home Page sdr.to
- Album Page sdr.to/album
- Artist Page sdr.to/artist
- Category Pages sdr.to/category
- Playlist page sdr.to/playlist
- Contact page sdr.to/contact
- About page sdr.to/about
- Tour Dates sdr.to/tour
The entire redesign and moving the site to the new domain effort took over 7 months, several developers, designers and a number of interns. We had to remake over 500 pages and move them to the new designs. Images were optimized for the previous website (which was the site the company used since 1999). Images were resized and on occasion needed tablet and mobile versions for all view port sizes.
