Challenge

Challenge

Modernise horse discovery without losing the specialist detail that drives a buying decision.

Finding the right horse depends on a highly specific combination of breed, discipline, age, height, sex, location, price and individual characteristics that generic marketplace patterns struggle to accommodate.

Solution

Solution

Rebuild discovery around the way people actually search for, assess and buy horses.

I redesigned the marketplace structure across taxonomy, search, specialist filters, results, horse profiles, seller experiences, content and enquiry, creating a journey that supports both highly intentional searches and more exploratory discovery.
