PROCESS
Research
The first step was to research other eCommerce sites and decide what made the user experience successful and what improvements could be made. I started a screenshot folder of sites I liked to use as inspiration. Next was deciding what type of site to build. I am into yoga and fitness so I wanted to create a yoga clothing and supplies store. From there, I made an IA diagram to guide me in what features and experiences the user would go through.

After the first draft and receiving feedback, I went on to improve the design and continued to built out the wireframes.

clarifying hierarchy
improving readability
creating a better checkout system
