Summary

The goal of this project was to rethink the existing web pages for staff and people involved with Woodmen Valley Chapel. The existing system was rather complicated and visually unappealing. We wanted to overhaul the UI to develop a new look that would be used throughout the rest of the website in the future, as well as redesign the current "Toolbox” system to improve the user experience.

Final Thoughts
  • Final designs were handed off in Figma to outside developers
  • The web app was integrated into the existing website/account system
  • All departments took ownership of their “toolbox” by uploading content and learning the new system
  • Several features were reserved for a 2.0 version in the future
