HPShopping.com Website Optimization and Scalability Presentation
Modern Web Design / CSS Pitch
Project Description: Around 2005 as web standards emerged and CSS was becoming the standard for creating and styling web page layouts, I championed the cause within HP in my department. Designers who started in print design were already familiar with using stylesheets and aware of their benefits from using programs such as Quark Express and Adobe PageMaker (similar to Adobe InDesign) when creating brochures, newsletters, catalogs, and magazines, or other types of publication designs. Business stakeholders, managers, and developers were generally less familiar with the concept of stylesheets though and this presentation aimed at informing and educating on the benefits of switching from HTML table based layouts to using CSS (or CSS-P) for positioning elements on web pages. It highlights specific benefits to the user experience (UX) (or customer experience (CX) in this case), benefits to how the brand would be perceived, plus how designers and developers workflow could be organized and optimized to reduce time spent on projects.
