The responsive design ensures that any site user can quickly and easily find the information they need with a quick tap. With secondary goals of educating users on the past exhibits, the long history of both Gracie Mansion along with the elected mayors, and the 1st Ladies of Gracie Mansion, navigation and clarity were both important focuses. White space and effective minimalism were incorporated to offset the color scheme and improve visibility along with navigation. The design approach makes use of artistic style, an intuitive layout, and a side-scrolling landing page that showcases art from exhibits held at the mansion. It also needed to provide a variety of information along with delivering useful functionality, all while honoring the rich tradition of the mansion. This new site was designed to help promote increased visitation from native New Yorkers, NYC metro area schools, and tourists. Lounge Lizard is excited to announce the launch of a new website for Gracie Mansion, the official online site for the home of the sitting mayors of New York City and their families.
