After learning more about Brian’s goals for the radio station, we knew the website needed to reflect a hip, young vibe that would appeal to the younger, “Top 40” listeners in Costa Rica. People who frequent this site need to instantly connect with the images, while understanding quickly what to do to access the music. The website is built on a responsive platform, so can be viewed conveniently on any size screen or device.

The website is simple, with several images that load randomly when the website is loaded. The simplicity makes it clear that the website is a vehicle for one thing:  listening to music. The “About Us” is one paragraph just below the main image. Connecting to social media is straightforward, and sits next to an open invitation to communicate with the DJ anytime.

KISS was our theme for this beauty. As our Graphic Designer Extraordinaire, Margee, likes to say, “Keep it simple, Sweetie!”
