Content Audit, Site-map and Navigation Structure

This week we had to audit the content for our websites, create a site-map and decide upon a navigation structure. Whilst my homework will be quite short, you can find supporting documentation in my Creative Experimentation.

Site-map

Please note that the layout of my site-map isn't truly a representation of the structure of my site. This makes it look as if my site is very deep, with little breadth. This is not the case. The layout above better suits the design of my current learning log, and I decided it would be better to have a site-map layout that was readable than one that represented the breadth of my intended design. So, for the purposes of the above image, please take the height as breadth and the breadth as height.

Navigation Structure.

I don't have any graphics to represent this aspect of my homework. This is because I haven't produced any. Whilst I know how I want my navigation to be laid out, I do not yet know how it is going to look in my final design. I do know, however, that I want my navigation to be a horizontal design with drop-down menus in place to handle the depth of the design.
