Your assignment today is to create the information architecture wireframes of a New York cultural magazine’s website. Your imaginary client and you have agreed upon the following list of requirements for the website.
Each of these requirements does not necessarily have to be on its own page or section of the site. You should try to organize and group these bits of information in such a way that they are intuitive. Then start to create wireframes that show how a user would navigate from the home page to find each of these pieces of content. Refer to these ideas about web site navigation and try to use as many of these navigation concepts as is appropriate for your site.
Refer to these professional samples of wireframe diagrams as your reference point for how detailed to make them. Also, look around at similar websites to get ideas from how they structured their own sites.
You can also view other students’ blogs from the Saturday class to see how their wireframes look by viewing their blogs in Google Reader. Their wireframe assignment was to create wireframes for a restaurant website.
When you have finished the assignment, please save each wireframe as an image file (either JPG, PNG, or GIF file type), and post them to your blog on blogger.com. The title of your blog post should be “Class 1 – Assignment – Restaurant Wireframes”
