Project overview

Project overview

When designing a product detail page (PDP), it's essential to not only showcase the product’s features but also infuse the brand’s identity into every element.

The revamped PDP is expected to lead to a more than 2% increase of the conversion rate. The primary objective was to refine user interaction and elevate engagement levels by incorporating more captivating elements, such as additional micro-interactions, storytelling features, and a broader selection of icons.

To begin, it was necessary to lay the foundation by understanding user shopping habits and the current page’s performance. Together with my manager, I investigated these habits and gathered insights.

Wireframes

Wireframes

I began with low-fidelity wireframes in order to explore ideas more efficiently, enabling swift ideation, decision-making, and redesigning across various breakpoints. Upon receiving approval from my project manager, I refined them into high-fidelity mockups, creating new components for our design system to ensure consistency and enhance efficiency.

Color

The client’s current PDP design is mainly black, white, and red for sales. To add more vibrancy, we updated the design guide with a new primary brand color. After collaborating with the marketing team, a dark, vibrant green was chosen. This color reflects the freshness and richness of food, thus aligning perfectly with the goal to focus on kitchen appliances and cooking classes.

Designs for 5 Breakpoints

Responsive

By ensuring our website is responsive, we enhance the user experience. We have 5 breakpoints. I design the experience to adapt to all device sizes, the goal is to boost accessibility, and amplify engagement for greater success.

Component build

Once I finalized the overall design, I created various scenarios to help our stakeholders and development team visualize the concepts more effectively. To improve efficiency, I built components with multiple variables. This allowed for quick updates across all five breakpoints, ensuring the correct information was consistently applied.
