BBC Wales HomepageThe new homepage for BBC Cymru Wales is launched. The homepage has seen a radical redesign using design and usability feedback from a nember of user testing sessions. The result is a more legible and usable gateway.

The gateway has functionality of chosing a colour palette based on an image. The image quality has improved dramatically and it includes the new News and Sport feeds.

Inital feedback has been good and the gateway page has been well received by management and nations and regions management.

I’ll be wrting a case study for this soon but in the meantime have a look - http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales

A picture of Mark BoultonI'm a graphic designer from near Cardiff in the UK. I've been a designer for over ten years now and primarily work on the web. I'm still partial to a bit of print every now and then though. I used to work for Agency.com in London as an Art Director before working as a Senior Designer for the BBC in sunny Cardiff. This was all before I took leave of my senses and formed my own design consultancy, Mark Boulton Design Ltd.

I've got a thing about grids and typography and occasionally ramble on about them to anyone who will listen.

If you're after simple, clean and effective web design; let me know.
