Problem
A joyful group, a flat website

Result
5 screens, tested
The landing page spans 5 screens and was tested with 5 participants.
What I learned
The features were there. The feeling was not.
With only 2 crucial features missing, the work was less about adding and more about fixing crowding, hierarchy and identity.
