Project Overview
The Village of McBride needed a more tourism-focused visual aesthetic with a modern web presence that would enhance user engagement, showcase the region’s unique natural beauty, and provide an accessible and user-friendly experience. Our team was selected to completely redesign the existing website, introducing design improvements and new functionalities that cater to an audience eager to explore McBride’s amazing natural attractions.
To address the challenges of the McBride Tourism website, we took a strategic and methodical approach, beginning with a comprehensive web audit to identify key areas for improvement in design, functionality, and performance. These insights guided the redesign process, ensuring a more seamless and engaging user experience.
This holistic approach resulted in a modern, efficient and user-friendly platform that authentically represents McBride’s charm while catering to the diverse needs of its users.


The Challenge
A seamless and intuitive navigation structure was a key focus of the McBride Tourism website redesign, but it posed significant challenges due to the disorganized legacy navigation. The existing structure lacked clear organization, making it difficult for users to find relevant information, and the categorization of attractions was particularly ineffective.
One of the biggest hurdles was the lack of high-quality visuals to showcase McBride’s breathtaking natural beauty. Without a strong collection of photographic assets, creating a cohesive and visually compelling identity became challenging. Despite these obstacles, our team implemented a strategic approach to restructuring the navigation and improving content organization while optimizing the available imagery to ensure a consistent and engaging user experience.



The Results
Establishing a strong navigational hierarchy allowed our team to organize content in a way that was both intuitive and visually compelling. Through a strategic redesign, we transformed the McBride Tourism website into a modern, user-friendly platform that truly highlights the area’s charm.
The new design introduced a sleek and structured layout, fresh visuals, and improved interactivity, significantly enhancing the user experience. By optimizing images and implementing efficient code, our team ensured fast load times for seamless browsing. Accessibility features were also integrated to meet modern WCAG standards, including appropriate contrast ratios and typographic legibility allowing all users to engage fully with McBride’s Tourism.
The result is a reliable, visually engaging resource that not only elevates the digital experience for visitors, but also effectively showcases McBride’s unique appeal, making it a valuable tool for both tourists and local businesses.
