Project Overview

2013  |  Web Design

To give this search engine site a fresh look, I redesigned the home page, search listing template, blog components, and a number of other templates. Below are a few examples of finished pages.

 

Finished Pages

Home Page Redesign

Inspired by search engines like Bing, I used a stunning background image and put the search function front and center.


Search Results Template

The listing page is the most fundamental page on the site, as it displays the search results. As this page was early on the redesign list, it also functioned as design direction for the remainder of the project.


Special Page: Listing Options


Special Page: Add-a-Listing Form

Applicants are encouraged to apply by phone, because the form is so long. In fact, it's so long that I might not design it this way today. However, it is an improvement on what came before. The visual hierarchy is easier to understand (clearly organized headings, tabs, etc.), and the expand/collapse functionality makes it much easier to manage options.


Special Page: Resources

I placed photography behind each heading and selected icons beside each resource link.
