Novo site da Converse e os elementos necessários para a construir uma boa experiência do usuário

Eu ia apenas escrever um tweet sobre o site da Converse, mas ficaria muito subjetivo não me aprofundar na questão sobre a qualidade da nova criação da R/GA NY.

Falar que é bom ou ruim, é fácil. Porém, a critica só se torna construtiva se ela vier acompanhada de bons argumentos.

Neste caso (www.converse.com), considerei o fato de eu estar sempre acompanhando os trabalhos da marca na internet. E diferente de tantas outras que, de fato, investem no online, a Converse é uma marca que consegue transferir seus valores institucionais de forma primorosa, para o ambiente digital.

Olhando de cima, navegando e interagindo com o conteúdo, ficou claro, pra mim, que este é um trabalho tático oriundo de uma estratégia baseada em construção de marca – uma coisa que a gente ainda não vê muito comumente. Ou seja, temos aqui um exemplo fiel de como deveria seguir a risca o trabalho tático na hora de desenvolver alguma plataforma institucional na internet, pois sua boa arquitetura de informação, usabilidade, navegação e, acima de tudo, seu conteúdo pertinente, são detalhes que fazem deste, mais um bom exemplo de trabalho que vai além da criatividade e do desenvolvimento técnico.
