Carrington Mortgage UK needed a new website and digital experience built from the ground up.

I started with extensive research into leading UK mortgage companies and their digital experiences. Two patterns stood out: mortgage calculators played a prominent role in the customer journey, and the websites were heavily content-driven.

My goal was to take the strongest principles I found in content architecture, site structure, mortgage tools, and visual design and use them to create a modern, simple experience for Carrington Mortgage UK.

UX, Information Architecture & Design

I defined the overall website experience, including its structure, content organization, navigation, and visual direction.

My work included:

  • Defined the new interface and visual direction
  • Created high-fidelity wireframes
  • Created storyboards and non-interactive prototypes
  • Established UI patterns and design standards
