Will Cloud was part of a group project that was set in my first year of university. The project at first seemed incredibly daunting as the brief was about death. Our groups aim was to create an interactive platform for loved ones of the deceased to use as a last connection with their lost ones.
The sample website that we created would include many different formal and informal pieces of information all in one place, for example: The deceased will, a last personalised farewell video/ letter, a set of instructions on what to do next, and the websites' contact team would be specialised in providing step-by-step guidance for the family/ friends of the deceased. The purpose for this project was to aim the people who were left behind as death is unavoidable, but many of us don’t actually know what to do or where to start when we lose someone close. "Will cloud" was designed to be as simple as possible in both navigation and guidance for both the initial user (the person who later passes away), to the family/ friends who access the site for personal and formal matters.
In all, this was an initial starting point for the project, and simply a university project for creative thinkers.
