Today we begin our preparation to get ourselves ready to define the Information Architecture (IA) for our app. We will discuss Information Architecture more in depth in a future (not too far away post) but first I want to touch on a couple concepts that I think are critical for us to be able to visualize in our mind how a Windows Phone app is structured. With this knowledge in mind plus the IA for your app we should be in a good place to move forward in the design process. The first concept I want to talk about is Hub & Spoke Navigation Model and the second one is Choosing Between Pivots, Panoramas and Pages. This week we will cover Hub & Spoke and next week we’ll go into the choosing the right screen patterns for your apps.
