Summary

I got an opportunity to work on further development of Eric the Sailor brand identity, which amongst many other things included creation of a brand book as well as their website.

Eric the Sailor

Eric the Sailor is a vintage beachwear brand based in Copenhagen. The creation of the brand was inspired by a sailor named Eric and his crazy adventures at sea. The team behind Eric the Sailor wanted to further define the brands identity and improve the visual design as well as the usability of the website in order to really convey the message behind it’s origin.  Later on I took part in developing the yearly marketing plan. 

Home Page

Product Page

Desktop view

The original website, specifically the landing page was overcrowded with information. The focus was put too much on selling which in turn lowered the credibility of the brand. When redesigning the website I wanted to make the content more digestible. That was done by showing where the information was rather than showing a lot of information at the same place.  

Mobile view

Since the majority of traffic to the website comes from mobile devices it was very important to make the website responsive. Therefore mobile design had to be considered from the very beginning of the project.
