Le Monde, news non stop
2014
Participation in the development of new Le Monde applications for the iOS and Android platforms.
During this mission within the mobile team of the newspaper Le Monde, my role was first to explore different models of interaction articulating the new editorial proposal decided by the editorial staff.
This exploration was carried out with the help of hand sketches supplemented, where necessary, by some screen sketches made with Keynote, a prototyping method developed for this project (détails).
In a second stage, I specified the model defined by the product development manager, so that the graphic designers and developers would have a reference documentation for the navigation and behaviour of the application.
Although it seemed simple, this project surprised me by the number of use cases to be foreseen, both on the readers' and the journalists' side. A little less surprising by their presence, but more by their scope, the economic and political stakes inherent to such an institution also weigh heavily in the balance to be found to achieve a comfortable interface to browse.
