Web Design

The science of web design is the process of scoping out a web site or intranet’s information requirments, creating a conceptual layout of the information and developing mock-ups of what the end product may look like.

During the design process I use a standard set of tools to accomplish the creating user interface mock-ups as well as how the user will navigate through the site.  These tools are as follows:

Adobe Photoshop

Photoshop is the standard tool of choice for most interface conceptualization.  For every site mock-up that I create, Photoshop always plays a part.

Microsoft Visio

Visio is a great tool for creating process flow diagrams and laying out entire sites in a high level hierarchy.
