UX Redesigns

Craigslist Housing Search

Most of us know what its like to have to search for a new home, even if its a temporary one. And most of us know the sheer awesomeness that is craigslist.org's desktop experience. Now, imagine a venn diagram of people who have needed to use craigslist.org to find a new home. Yeah...

The following was part of a larger project to improve many aspects of craigslist's desktop experience.
The only pieces showcased here are ones I was directly responsible for.

Quotes From User Interview

Let's meet our two interview subjects:

What are some of the best looking websites you visit and why?

What are some of the best functioning websites you visit & why?

What are some words or emotions you associate with craigslist.org?

What are your experiences multitasking while using craigslist.org?

Do you feel using craigslist.org has added joy or value to your life?

What are some of your biggest pain points with craigslist.org?

New User Flow

Taking these quotes to heart, I then designed a new user flow for utilizing craigslist.org to find housing. It was met with approval by the rest of the team, leading to the creation of digital wireframes.

Proposed Wireframes

Once the user flow was established, I presented these digital wireframes to be reiterated upon by the other members of the project team. I drew heavily from zillow.com & apartments.com due to their large market shares & track record of user trust.
