Project Goals
- Align with art direction to include and create custom holiday branding elements.
- Ensure cohesive visual storytelling aligned with Amazon’s brand guidelines.
- Provide a design build that mitigates significant engineering limitations.
- Deliver seamless navigation through the featured style categories.
- Assure web accessibility standards.
Challenges
- Some proposed uses of red from stakeholders did not meet accessibility standards.
- Due to limitations with engineering resources, this hub was built via image blocks. That meant that each piece of navigation had to made into an individual image block and that seperate suites of assets were needed for both desktop and mobile devices.
- On mobile, the navigation menu was removed due to technical constraints, as implementing a traditional hamburger menu wasn’t feasible. To maintain usability, navigation back to the main page was provided through a header-embedded menu and a scroll-triggered button.
