We do custom printed t-shirts as well as selling a wide range of pop culture t-shirts. We are primarily aimed at a 16-35 predominantly male audience. We are also currently working on the website to also make it a place where designers, artists and pretty much anyone can open a store within our store and upload and sell designs through our site. As an example it will be like red bubble.
Style wise we are after a slightly grungy looking but crisp site that is eye catching. We like neon/fluorescent type colours but always the t-shirts and designs need to be prominent.
Also has to be user friendly in terms of navigation.
The winning design must be responsive and scale well from mobile phone to large desktop.
Landing Page - We need a page which basically introduces our store and concept. You should be able to quickly get to the shop area if you want to buy t-shirts or to the store page if you want to upload and sell designs through us. Should have a link to the blog, social media buttons, newsletter sign up, search bar etc...
General shop / buyer page - Need a slideshow banner which highlights the specials on offer and any other information that is newsworthy from us! Like deals and sales etc... Then the featured products should be highlighted. Also need the categories shown down a side menu. Like men’s range, women’s range, shirt categories like film/tv, funny, geek etc…
Personal store / seller page - Has to be clear in describing how to set-up and create a store in theteehouse. Maybe in a banner form. Also if you have an existing store you should just be able to log in and start uploading your designs and managing your store and products. So after the description there should be buttons saying something like ‘create your store’ and ‘go to your store’.
Shirt page – When a design is clicked on it will take you to the individual shirt page. The shirt picture should be prominent with thumbnails underneath. Also need the price with the menu options to the right. Like the size, colour, gender, shirt style, quantity etc… There should also be an add to cart button. Would also like a share buttons for all social media functions. Would probably like an area at the bottom for comments to be shown etc…
Upload design page – Should have an image uploader button and a canvas like area. Once a design is uploaded it will appear in the box. A menu should be available where someone can set their price, check off boxes to choose the products and colours they will offer their design on and a description box where they can add notes pertaining to their design and any other sales related information they would like to pass on to us.
Within the canvas there should be a tool bar with things they can use to position their design on the template and resize them etc…
We want it to be a site that really focuses on t-shirt culture and encourages people to not only buy and sell shirts from but to also come and look at interesting things like videos, articles and blogs about all things t-shirts.
