Popularizing the image of Zurich as an attractive trip destination

The brief was to analyse their existing web presence, improve the navigation concept and user journey and redesign their online experience. As well as being more logically structured with an intuitive, attractive interface. The site had to position Zurich as one of europe's leading destinations.
