Web Design Brief

We require a fresh new website design for the Melbourne High School Old Boys Association. The association is a non-for-profit and as such we like the site to reflect the ethos.

We require a design that uses responsive design techniques, so to allow the site to shift between mobile, tablet and desktop spaces and maintain elements in the site.

We would like a landing/home page design, and also an inner news/article based design included.

We want the site to appeal to a broad market of both the old guard members but also to bring on board the new social savey younger members.

The site needs to have a modern take on a professional yet fresh and opulent/elegant look.
A site that we like influences from is http://www.sofitel-melbourne.com/ we especially like the navigation look and feel.

The site needs to be clean and simple to find information and navigate and as such would like the site design elements to reflect this in its layout and element interplay.

This site will act as an information gateway for the member's, but also offer abilities to purchase memberships, get information on up coming events and purchase tickets to these events, and interact with the members on the site.

Hi all designers, please don't let the wireframe layout include restrict your design freedom on the page layout. We included this to give you a feel for the elements wanted in the site, but not to push you to have them all in that arrangement. Feel free to move around or remove parts of to make better use of the space.

Also this site is for ex-students who are members of an association linked to the school, and not for the school itself, so your designs need to lean towards a member, events and reunions type site design.

After a review today, client now requires that the sites Events need special consideration. Want to see in a prominent position on the landing page area a good area to showcase the upcoming events. Please take this into consideration in your future design layouts.
