About Macy’s Website Redesign

Macy's Website is an online retail interface that allows customers to browse and buy the products offered by Macy's.

Responsive web technologies allow access through laptop computers, tablets and smartphones. Extensive research guided the work, including user surveys, interviews, A/B testing and usability testing. The simpler structure streamlines the purchase process and improved user engagement.
