Approach
The Dunbar Sloane website underwent a redesign to enhance both UX and UI. An About page was introduced to showcase the business's history, along with an auction landing page for easy navigation to different auction sections. A new Team page highlights key staff and auctioneers' profiles and expertise. Additionally, the homepage was refreshed visually and features like slide-swiping functionality was introduced. I worked on the designs for this project and also the web development using Webflow.
