From looking through the user testing results that had been collected, it was noticed that there were a range of social media sites which came up to be included within the site. Before deciding on which social media to use, the different types of which the client is currently using needed to be determined, allowing for a clear knowledge of which links can be put onto the site, along with which links would be more favoured within the industry.

To begin, a meeting with the client was scheduled to go through all of the social media which the client is currently on. From this it was learnt that there were not many sites which the client was actually on as they personally do not enjoy social media. Although they had been using Facebook, Pinterest and had recently downloaded Instagram, although they did not have LinkedIn which was brought up a few times within the user testing and would be beneficial to add to the collection of professional social media. After suggesting this to the client and offering to create an account for them, the client decided that they did not want to have any more social media at the moment, and that in time they will create an account which can be added into the site at a later date.

When researching into the social media which the client currently has, the overall view of the social media was kept professional, allowing for a clear view of how the client works along with their hobbies and interests. When looking through current interior architect’s social media accounts there were a range of similarities which could be seen between the client’s social media and those of others within the industry.

Along with comparing the client’s social media to that of competitors and agencies, the social media was developed by adding more posts which are related to interior architecture on Pinterest, Instagram and advancing connections with those in the industry. Following different interior architecture companies and influences allows for more interest to be shown in the subject across the different platforms which possible clients or employers could take an interest in.
