AutoTrader

2019 — 2020

As Principal Designer at AutoTrader, I led a strategic brand refresh initiative, implementing an enhanced design language across key vertical landing pages. This initiative followed a comprehensive information architecture optimisation project for autroader.co.uk.

The project scope involved modernising user interface designs, establishing refined art direction standards, and elevating web patterns to maximise product performance.

I led the development and implementation of ATDS (AutoTrader Design System), creating B2B and B2C pattern libraries supported by a comprehensive documentation hub.
