Visual Design Must reflect Heineken values: –Respect, Enjoyment, Quality, International Must be more modern and progressive than the current site Must be responsible to usability standards and established conventions of corporate sites Must maintain the integrity of the current Heineken VID (Visual identity) Although corporate site, it should be youthful, internationally minded; (Project Beacon) Internally: galvanizing force, design needs to make people proud, get them excited and inspire them to participate.
54
Global Navigation: Intuitive content organization built around primary stakeholders. World map: Alternate means of navigation provides visual communication of Heineken’s international scope Links to Micro sites : aid in directing site traffic to appropriate location Search: Persistent search box, allows users access to content from anywhere on site Dynamic content areas: Headlines dynamically generated on the homepage via the CMS provide users immediate access to new content
55
World map Immediate visual communication of Heineken’s international scope Image Immediate visual communication of Heineken’s products Comment: No emphasis on (drinking) beer on corporate site Interactive map Re-appears throughout web site adapting to different contexts Illustrates specific Heineken global, topic in clear and attractive manner. User is able to use map as a means of navigation. Main entrances Five, clear main entrances to web site Comment: Should be recognizable navigation bar on homepage, consistent with deeper levels
56
World map image Encourages visitors to explore the world of Heineken beyond their immediate scope of interest Comment: Too much emphasis on global aspect. Takes up too much space Main entrances Turned into global navigation. Drop down menu’s create overview of site content Comment: Use Heineken font/type face Links to Micro sites Comment: Must be part of global navigation Spotlight On specific topics Comment: Takes up too much space Feedback feature Comment: Not ready to display user feedback Content - good Usability - good Colour - good Too much emphasis on global Too little emphasis on enjoyment Too “heavy” does not portray “openness”
59
Navigation bar Unique Heineken font/ type face in main navigation Navigation for Micro sites Feedback feature. Simplified No feedback on results on homepage Into the spotlight Takes up less space Opportunity to add up to three spotlight items Images with emphasis on enjoyment, beer brewing company, youth and respect for different cultures Interactive map Cut back on space for world map without loosing emphasis on international feel Brands Use world map to Introduce Heineken brands per region Open Friendly Balance in global and enjoyment
