WEB PORTAL
Homepage
We have developed the new portal for Ara Lleida for the Diputació de Lleida. This region is considered a leader in adventure sports in Spain, with 223 specialized companies and the hosting of world championships (kayaking, paragliding, hang gliding, canoeing...), as well as a land of exceptional beauty for nature enthusiasts (hiking, long-distance hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, fishing, hunting...). With the homepage, we wanted to showcase all of this, so the image occupies the entire screen of the device.
Portal
website, made up of many other websites, is how the Ara Lleida portal is structured. Over the past few years, different teams, agencies, studios, auditors, managers... have been developing various projects separately and with different styles, which is why they did not have a direct connection between them. Therefore, the first effort has been to create a new web architecture to define the hierarchy of these projects, in order to integrate them into a single structure. Many of these have been kept in their original form (without any changes), which can help reduce costs and efforts, but allows for their development over a longer period.
Menu
And how do different websites integrate under the same hierarchical structure? Exactly, thanks to the menu. This is the most important element that gives sense and overall cohesion: in a single dropdown menu with different levels that displays all available sections, both internal to the same website and external. In this way, we ensure to the maximum that the user feels like they are continuing to navigate within the same portal and that they do not get lost in navigation.
