A great piece from the BBC's Nick Haley on the design thinking that has gone into delivering the BBC Olympic project across desktop, tablet, mobile and connected TV.
18 months in development, the design needed to accommodate the core sports audience as well as those who only become interested at big sporting events. The content structure builds on the design language already established by the BBC's UX team, but adds extra layers of detail as you drill down.
Extensive user testing was used to help the BBC team understand how people wanted to interact with the Olympics and to refine the placing of key information.
Illustrated with some initial post-it note sitemaps development sketches, this is a great case study for students of UX design.
