About the project
Beginning as a visual design project for social media, Print expanded quickly & need for a website was clear to aid users.
Instagram story post templates were created to showcase city recommendations and features like road trips and gift guides.
Problem space
Speaking with followers, users needed an easy way to easily access recommendations from others without having to look through Instagram Stories.
Homepage for Print Collective digital city guides.
I organized information architecture and user flows for the website to make recommendations friendly and easy-to-use.
Solution
Galleries on city guide pages allow users to explore different categories of business, while the map view helps users plan in a certain area.
Designs were also created to continue iterating and developing the first version of the website.

Toronto city guide includes editorial content and overview of recommendations with links to the interactive map.
Outcome
As Print Collective continues to grow, I am designing iterations and conducting user research for a new itinerary product.
In the end...
The experience of translating digital experiences and visual design required attention to both user needs and design trends. Searching for a careful balance of both taught me to always look to evolve design and improve functionality.
