RWD or Responsive Website Design is gaining popularity due to the creation of mobiles, tablets and smart phones. Even though there are numerous benefits of having a RWD, numerous challenges have to be faced while creating a responsive design. These challenges arise since; the size of screens for which the website is designed keeps changing with more devices being released in the market.
Handling the technical details of a RWD is extremely daunting, and this is what is considered to be the most challenging part which is handled by experts of iBrandox. Designers of this firm are skilled to deal with changing scripts and codes according to the requirement of the clients. Listed below are some challenges faced by these designers while creating a responsive website design.
Informing ClientsThe process of designing static and dynamic web pages which were not concerned with responsiveness was quite simple and clients had to go through a set of phases which were quite simple. These phases included a briefing stage, followed by a planning stage after which is the structure stage. After these three phases the clients would only have to deal with a set of visuals and make a choice amongst them. This process is rather easy and the clients are able to understand this process.
A more fluid design process is used for creation of a responsive design and the tools used are for view-framing, sketching and prototyping. The visual stage does not exist and designers have a hard time explaining it to the clients, as they are not satisfied without visuals. At this firm the designers solve this challenge of responsive website designing by showing the responsiveness of the design rather than explaining breakpoints, or multi-device functionality.
Absence of Static Design PhaseSince, the design process has changed motionless screens are no longer created. Quick sketches, wire framing and CSS and HTML prototypes that can be generated quickly are used for creation of design prototype. In order to cope with the challenge of designing fewer layouts should be created and the focus should be on designing elements. The ideas can be tested on normal paper of different sizes. The use of HTML is preferred over the use of Fireworks and Photoshop for creation of assets. It is better to create the entire layout rather than creating only assets.
The creation of wireframes that are potable is preferred for bigger projects as they can be moved around without much hassle.
Navigation For websites with static design the navigation would be present on top of the page or on the left side. In order to create the right effect iBrandox designers need to choose and use a better strategy to face this challenge of responsive website designing. The architecture, content, information and design considerations are the factors to be considered while choosing the type of navigation.
